Delta Air Lines has announced a new policy that requires people with service animals to provide proper documentation, proving that their animals are both healthy and trained, enabling them to fly. This must be provided 48 hours before the scheduled flight’s departure. Delta has said that two-thirds of the alleged service animals on their flights are […]
Within America’s military, there is a never-ending emphasis on force readiness, which many associate with important things like equipment maintenance, training for personnel, and of course, the continued development of new, more advanced weapons platforms. However, from a logistical side, “readiness” means much more than ensuring our troops have the right gear and are trained […]
Two soldiers were killed early Saturday morning when their AH-64 Apache helicopter went down during pre-deployment training operations at the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, California. The helicopter reportedly crashed at around 1:00 A.M. local time, though no further details into what may have caused the incident have been released. The pilot and co-pilot […]
SpaceX’s January 7th launch of a Falcon 9 rocket carrying a classified government payload estimated to cost in the neighborhood of one billion dollars was reported a failure by unnamed government officials at the time, but what really happened to the mission, named “Zuma,” remains a mystery lawmakers sought to resolve on Wednesday.

Former Army Ranger Paul Lozier was accused by an online blog last week of lying about him being a Ranger. The accusation was spurred during a political argument on Facebook, when the owner of the blog that seeks out those who claim stolen valor posted about Lozier, publicly calling him a fraud.

Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee want its Republican chairman, Devin Nunes, to release the transcript of the panel’s interview with Fusion GPS cofounder Glenn Simpson. Fusion GPS wants the transcript released, too. The House Democrats can’t distribute the transcript unilaterally, like the Senate Judiciary Democrats did, because the House committee’s rules require Republicans’ consent. […]
America’s attention was suddenly shifted toward Hawaii on Saturday, as alerts were sent out warning of a “ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii.” The text message claimed that it was not a drill. Since then, authorities have claimed that this was a mistake — not the actions of a foreign government or “hackers,” simply human […]
Last year, SOFREP reported on an unusual celestial anomaly that have left some experts wondering if it may be the first proof of an extra-terrestrial civilization: the first ever repeating fast radio bursts, originating in a dwarf galaxy some 3 billion light years away.
