I used Windows XP for years when I worked for the military as a civilian, and at home as well The military license allowed everyone a home use copy.  Best Windows ever IMO.

I built one of those balsa stringer and bulkhead, tissue covered models of the J3.   I loved building models when I was a kid.  Cars, planes, ships, submarines, a Mercury Redstone rocket and launch pad, you name it.  Most of them ended up being blown up with firecrackers, shot with BB guns or...

Maybe most every time.   When you climb into your F35, boot up the systems and the screen says; Welcome to Windows 7...

We have some carrier pilot here or back seaters.  Ask them.  Going well over 100 miles per hour and landing on a moving ship which is pitching and rolling, is no small task for man or computer.  Granted that it was broad daylight with good visibility, and seas were relatively calm when the...

They identified the people that leaked the videos, and they are being dealt with.

Carriers can certainly deliver a lot of hurt to almost anywhere in the world. The only problem is the carrier battle group, a large, very expensive, bunch of ships whose main function is to protect the carrier, has never been battle tested in combat against a modern naval force, obviously...

Ward and his buddys analyze the footage here.

You can write to the Navy but I doubt they will send you a copy.

The US Navy was on the spot when the crash occurred obviously.  They are in international waters.  There were two carried battle groups practicing together.   I doubt there is any way that any Chinese ship or submarine or whatever can even get close to the site, let alone the sunken plane.  The...

I defer to the grand master of strategy and tactics, sir Donald 'Sun Tzu' Rumsfeld. “You go to war with the Army you have, not the Army you might want or wish you had at a later time.”  I worked at the US Army Europe HQ in logistics.  Our operations folks went into the secret filing cabinet...
