Affectionately called the ‘Fightin Buckeye’ or ‘Pregnant Guppie’ because of its fuselage shape the T-2 […]
The ground doesn’t lie. Short of teleporting or being a ghost, a human being will leave some evidence of its presence or movement. It is science; tracking is empirical and fact-driven. It is not an abstract, ancient art form. Those two basic tenants would be drilled into our brains during the week-long combat tracking course with the […]
Raid: a type of operation that captivates the mind and many people believe that it is the essence of what SOF units are about, hit hard and get out quickly, leaving only destruction in your wake. One such operation that I found fascinating as a young reader of military history was the Israeli raid on […]

From “The X-Files” in 1993 to “Stranger Things” in 2016, popular culture has long been certain that the government’s been experimenting successfully with psychic powers, despite our phone calls to Miss Cleo never producing the winning lottery numbers we hoped for. The CIA’s efforts in the realm of psychic phenomena have been a matter of […]
During World War II, the Allies needed a way to make bombing more accurate. At the time, bomb accuracy was often measured in miles. Most bombs dropped by either side would miss their targets. Air armadas of hundreds—if not thousands—of bombers were necessary to ensure that just a handful of targets were struck. The higher-ups […]
The World of Tanks YouTube channel has a new segment out on one of the strangest tanks ever seen—the so-called “Tsar Tank“. The tank, which looked like a cross between a plow and a Martian war machine, stood an astonishing three stories tall. Tanks were invented in World War I, and before the design was […]
I was surprised to find out that before he was “Stormin’ Norman” leading coalition forces to a swift victory against Iraqi forces during the Gulf War, he was the newly promoted Brigadier General Norman Schwarzkopf of the 24th Mechanized Infantry Division.
