Your rifle quits mid-fight. Drill it before then.

COPENHAGEN/WASHINGTON — The U.S. plans to re-establish a Cold War-era military base in southern Greenland and set up another on the east coast, now used by the Danish dog sled patrol, under a deal to be signed with Denmark and Greenland on Tuesday, according to three people familiar with the matter.The sites are Narsarsuaq, whose population has dwindled to a few dozen people since the U.S. closed its Bluie West One military base in the 1950s, and Mestersvig, a military outpost used by the Sirius Dog Sled Patrol, a Danish special forces unit, said two of the people.Denmark, Greenland and…

Part five on zeroing an AK. He’s thorough.

Most men hang too much off the carrier.

The fundamentals, from a man who teaches them.

The United States is largely defenseless against Russian and Chinese aerial attacks. This is a major strategic problem in today’s era of massed drone and missile warfare—and no one is clearly in charge of solving it.President Trump’s February 2025 executive order, “The Iron Dome for America” (later rebranded as Golden Dome), directed the Department of Defense to protect U.S. citizens and infrastructure from all forms of aerial attack. The department took a first step toward assigning responsibility for a U.S. air and missile defense architecture by standing up the Golden Dome office. But critical elements of any near-term defensive shield…

Which dot belongs on your pistol. He has an opinion.

What to do if it ever happens near you.

Flat on your back, gun in hand. Worth knowing.

The title is the whole description. Press play.

A morgue, she calls it. No hurry to this one.

He sat in on the hunt. Now he talks.

Knife against gun, up close. Short one.

Shoppers ended it. Police were still on the way.

The Jersey drones. He says he knows.

A Nevada Air Force Base was picked to house General Atomics’ FQ-42, a week after the U.S. Air Force dubbed the Collaborative Combat Aircraft as Vengeance.On Friday, a new FQ-42 Vengeance aircraft was delivered to Creech Air Force Base, according to a Monday company release, and will continue regular test and evaluation operations to experiment with the new jet.“Every week, the Air Force is pushing forward with new and more impressive accomplishments using Vengeance. It’s amazing to think of how far this program has come in such a short amount of time,” Vice President of Advanced Programs Mike Atwood said…

President Donald Trump’s approval rating fell to 32% — the lowest of his political career — as his fellow Republicans soured on his handling of the cost of living amid the unpopular Iran war, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found.The poll, completed on Sunday, was conducted over a four-day period that saw Trump throw three major news organizations out of the White House and muse that Washington’s iconic Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts — named after slain President John F. Kennedy — could be torn down if Trump’s own name could not be added to it.It found voters leaning away…

About six months after rolling out a tougher, more combat-centric, entry-level U.S. Air Force training program, leaders of the change say they have one big concern: that follow-on training will let trainees’ new skill sets go to waste. Col. Kellie Courtland, commander of the 37th Training Wing out of Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, said the Air Force’s Basic Military Training Next’s evolution, now in version BMT 3.0, is turning fledgling airmen into strategists by orienting them to the fight earlier on.“Everybody’s into BMT Next. We can create you the best air-minded badass warrior you’ve ever seen, but that is of…

A CRUDE SHELTER in a vast winter landscape, the conspicuous lump on the tundra resembles a misshapen, man-made boulder. Its bright blue shell luffs like a loose sail and shudders in the wind. One end of the tarp is fastened to a broken-down snowmobile. The other ends are pulled to the ground and anchored by the snow and rime that have accumulated over the last few days. Inside the makeshift dwelling, two frozen fists clench the tarp. Curled in the fetal position, the man cannot…

The U.S. Air Force is on track to graduate 1,500 new pilots in fiscal 2026 after a year of modernizing the service’s flight-training model.The Air Force began a new initiative in 2025 called the Future of Undergraduate Pilot Training, shifting flight training from traditional military pilot training to civilian flight schools. The ability to add 1,500 pilots this fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30, confirms the validity of the FUPT to bridge the gap of the service’s 2,407-pilot shortfall, according to a recent release.“Reaching 1,500 pilots is a milestone, but it is not the finish line,” Lt. Gen. Clark J.…

And if American sportsmen ever have to demonstrate, especially for youngsters, the necessity of wise laws and decent self-restraint, let them tell the story of the American bison (to give the buffalo his true name), and how he was virtually exterminated by a horde of greedy, wasteful men. Just the bare statistics are shocking. Wildlife authorities estimate that before the coming of the white man, not less than seventy-five million buffaloes probably…
