Fun meter pegged. I had purchased my first airplane in 2003, a little 1980 Cessna 172 and had this great idea […]

For many veterans, the Department of Veterans Affairs can be a source of seemingly limitless frustration. Long wait times, understaffed facilities, and miles of red tape are just some of the barriers between veterans and the care they seek. As a result, a rash of gun-related incidents has plagued VA facilities in recent months. Notably, […]
We certainly live in some tumultuous times, with what appears to be a full-blown culture war erupting between various factions in a highly polarized society.

In recent years, a series of cringe-worthy posts inevitably surface on social media that lambaste veterans and chastise civilians about the appropriate way to observe Memorial Day.

Back in 1993, the short-lived action-adventure TV series “Thunder in Paradise” showed us what it would be like if you gave a pair of former Navy SEALs (played by Hulk Hogan and Chris Lemmon) a stealthy tactical boat with which they could conduct their mercenary operations.

Only two weeks after a rash of veteran suicides on the grounds of different Veterans Affairs (VA) facilities around the country, New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told an audience in the Bronx the VA system provides veterans with “some of the best care in the world,” adding her parents taught her when something “ain’t broke,” […]

An investigation is underway following the revelation that some sort hidden camera was discovered by a female Marine in the women’s bathroom (head) aboard the USS Arlington, a San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock ship, last month. The Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) has taken the lead on the investigation, which cites a “recording device in […]
Within the Marine Corps veteran community, there are few subjects more prone to good-natured ribbing than the modern generation’s reliance on the standard issue Marine rifle combat optic, commonly referred to as an RCO. These 4x magnification rifle gunsights have been a part of every Marine’s standard rifle loadout for years now, but among old […]
In January, NEWSREP covered the revelation the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) had seen a dramatic drop in suicide prevention outreach efforts throughout 2017 and 2018, even leaving more than $6.2 million allocated for the effort untouched throughout the last fiscal year. VA officials blamed President Trump for the rapid turnover at the senior […]
