9/11
On the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, the United States lost nearly 3,000 people in the single deadliest terrorist attack in U.S. history. On the 20th anniversary, we remember those we lost that day, and the friends and families left behind. #WeRemember911 pic.twitter.com/pJtaQaXtfy

About that drone strike that the Pentagon was crowing about after the attack on our Marines...
Yeah, it didn't feel right then and now we find it wasn't right. They picked a guy to kill to take the political heat off themselves. Pretty damn depressing. An innocent died for our politics. This sucks. Sucks bad. Never forget. This bubba had a wife and kids...family that loved him and he got blasted for nothing.The final act of the U.S. war in Afghanistan was a drone strike in Kabul that killed 10 people. Our latest investigation shows how a man the military saw as an "imminent threat" and "ISIS facilitator" was actually an aid worker returning to his family: https://t.co/eUX5WSImrD

Lockheed Martin's Hybrid Wing Body
Lockheed Martin's Hybrid Wing Body aims to replace the C-17 for strategic airlift and air-to-air refuelling from 2040. With increased structural integrity versus legacy designs, it has the same load capacity as a C-5A, while burning 70% less fuel than a C-17. (Via @AviationWeek) pic.twitter.com/BFmsWZltfV
