The United States is preparing for cyber conflict with a military structure that still treats cyberspace as a secondary supporting function.We have soldiers for land, sailors for sea, airmen for air, and guardians for space. But in cyberspace, a borderless domain where American forces are engaged with adversaries every day, we still do not have a military service whose central purpose is to build a quality, expert force, equipped with the most cutting-edge capabilities, for war-fighting in the cyber domain.For more than a decade, Washington has tried to patch this problem instead of fixing it. Congress has granted U.S. Cyber…

A U.S. Army combat medic who fled to the United Kingdom while under investigation in 2022 was convicted by a military jury this month of desertion, larceny and making a false official statement, according to the Army Office of Special Trial Counsel. The ruling marked the end of a yearslong effort to return him to military custody. Spc. Oliver E. Board, 33, disappeared after the Army charged him with fraudulently procuring family separation pay, which is a monthly allowance to help families offset expenses when a service member’s job forces them to be apart for over 30 days. At the…

As Air Force Maj. Jason Watson ascended the Capitol steps last week wearing his military uniform and armed with one protest sign, he knew the risks and was prepared for the consequences, no matter how severe.Watson, 40, a U.S. Air Force Academy graduate with 17 years on active duty, stood on the steps of the House of Representatives in roughly 100-degree weather on July 1, silently holding a sign that read “Impeach Convict Remove” to call for the impeachment of President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance. After standing on the steps for approximately three minutes, Capitol Police arrested…

SOMEWHERE IN THE flat, gray mist that hung like a shroud over the dripping tangle of cabbage palms and moss-bearded water oaks, a lone duck shattered the stillness with a sharp, plaintive cry. A chill whistled down my spine. Duck or no duck, it sounded like the wildcats we’d heard screaming from the depths of Tate’s Hell the night before. “Watch for him,” whispered Gene Padgett who was sculling the skiff. “He may come in.” I blinked the mist out of my eyes and squinted…

Oil prices have surged as the United States and Iran have reignited their war. The US ruling class revoked a two-month sanctions waiver and renewed strikes against the Islamic Republic after reported tanker attacks in the Strait of Hormuz. According to the UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO), an unidentified projectile struck a tanker off the coast of Oman, causing a fire on board. The WSJ reported that one of the damaged vessels may have been the Al Rekayyat, a tanker owned by Qatar’s Nakilat. The vessel reportedly sustained damage near its engine room, while all crew members remained safe. Axios…

The Pentagon is exploring cheap, long-range drone options that may eventually replace the MQ-9 Reaper. The search comes after dozens of MQ-9s were swatted out of the sky during the Iran war, according to a May 13 Congressional Research Service report. With the Air Force currently possessing about 135 Reapers — which cost approximately $30 million apiece — such a loss rate is not sustainable, especially against a force like Iran, whose air defenses are less sophisticated than those of China or Russia. “The Joint Force’s reliance on low-density, high-value ‘exquisite’ (>$30 million) manned and unmanned aircraft is unsustainable against…

Sign up for the Outdoor Life Newsletter Get the hottest outdoor news from Outdoor Life. The locals who work for safari companies have an apt and often unflattering way of naming sportsmen. Almost never do they call them by their proper American or European names, as these names are as strange, meaningless, and as difficult to pronounce for them as their own names are for the sportsmen. So when my wife, Eleanor, and I were hunting in Mozambique with two friends, we all got names. Dr. Sib West, a Willows, California, dentist was very lucky. He had a tape recorder…

What followed was a counterattack that put D Company in jeopardy, in which Alvarado played a vital role. As his platoon moved toward the ongoing fight, Alvarado detected enemy…

US Allegations: Iran Fired Missiles At Vessels In Strait of Hormuz On Wednesday, US Central Command (CENTCOM) said it hit dozens of Iranian ground and naval targets “in response to Iranian attacks on three commercial vessels that were transiting the Strait of Hormuz,” denouncing Tehran for “aggression [that] was…

The Air Force just gave 135 security forces airmen some bad news: a previous notification that the personnel were being promoted to E6 was an error. The mistake was “an isolated and highly unprecedented anomaly,” officials announced in a July 7 release.“Following the recent technical sergeant 26E6 promotion cycle release, an enlisted promotions team member at Air Force Personnel Center discovered that an outdated scoring key was used for the 3P071 (security forces) Specialty Knowledge Test,” officials stated.Air Force officials conducted a full re-score for all 2,285 security forces promotion eligibles and identified 135 airmen who should not have been…
