Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst – Joint Forces Training Coyle Field “Heavy Lift Training”
These images/videos were taking from a JB-MDL combined effort training event at Coyle Field, NJ on 14 August. The CH-53 is a heavy lift helicopter and was operated by the United States Marine Corp. This training was a full JB-MDL effort “heavy lift training exercise” involving other forces that are located here on JB-MDL (Army and Air Force). The lift consisted of strapping to the CH-53 a heavy military vehicle and a large concrete slab on separate training lifts. The Joint Effort shows all forces assisting in attaching the heavy components as it hovered over the lift for movement. (Photo and Video captured by the Training Support Center / Daniel Amburg)

Some say we fought an entire war because the President at the time was mad because this dude threatened his father....

Despite his request to be executed by firing squad, which he claimed was the appropriate military punishment given his role as commander-in-chief of the Iraqi military, Saddam was instead… pic.twitter.com/2miRvtLDoH
Hamas is on the convert or die tip...
Convert or die? I guess that means we must kill them first huh?Hamas terrorists: “Our issue is not just Palestine, our issue is killing every non-Muslim. We will pursue Jews and Christians all over the world. Either they convert to Islam or we’ll kill them!”

Those roids have wrecked her.....this mixed gender MMA fight is gonna be wild!
Gabbi always had "masculine" traits but you can tell she dialed up to 1000 on the roids. Its to the point where female MMA fighters won't fight her and I really can't blame them ONE BIT! This mixed gender fight is gonna be wild.Craig Jones kisses Gabi Garcia at face-offs and the fight is now cancelled 😳

Rough day for the Ukrainian push into Kursk?
Still don't get this offensive. Still seems fool hardy to me. Regardless I expect another stalemate and then a withdrawal to fortify their lines inside Ukraine cause this is looking like a bridge too far.Today was probably the worst day for the Armed Forces of Ukraine since February 2022.

Let's walk through it.
The Russians started the day off by destroying two HIMARS launchers at their hide site in Sumy. This has likely ended GMLRS support for the Kursk operation temporarily. pic.twitter.com/wNLYHAWxHz

Large Scale, Long Range Air Assault to JRTC @ Night

| 101 Combat Aviation Brigade sling loads an Infantry Squad Vehicle (ISV) for the 2nd Mobile Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) at the Joint Regional Training Center (JRTC) at Ft. Johnson, LA as part of a large scale, long range air assault (L2A2) that the 101st launched from Ft. Campbell, KY to JRTC on the night of August 15, 2024. L2A2 means delivering one brigade combat team over 500 nautical miles in one period of darkness, arriving as a cohesive element where the enemy least expects it, capable of fighting behind enemy lines for 14 or more days. |
Berger gave it all away in order to chase his China whale and its gonna cost the Marine Corps.
The Pentagon will not tolerate a void and the US Army happily picked up everything Berger gleefully threw away.
That bastard thought he could see the future but he couldn't see how fucked up and arrogant he really was.

US Army is making 7th ID part of the ground force designated for the Pacific (25th ID is in play too)...
I'm on the outside looking in but it appears that the US Army is taking hardcore changes to make itself the decisive ground force in the Pacific.
Note that I did not say Korea, but the Pacific.
The 2nd ID (which is headed toward being understrength) is still tasked with the fight in Korea, but seems to be off the table for other areas.
The same definitely can't be said for the 25th ID which was the first Army unit to make a full throated swing there. Now we can the 7th ID to the mix.
So what does that leave us with?
25th and 7th IDs dedicated to a potential fight with China (biased toward that fight?), 2nd ID tasked with Korea and 11th Airborne taking on the arctic fight.
These bastards are out Marining the Marine Corps.
The Army can tailor forces to regional fights. The Marine Corps must be ready to swing to any fight in any region at anytime.
Force Design was a huge mistake.
The Army got started late but ya got to give the fuckers credit. Once they took a beat and a heading they're on track.

Let's get real about the Ukrainian invasion of Kursk...
The narratives that I'm hearing/reading about the Ukrainian invasion of Kursk has me spinning...
* We've heard about manpower shortages on the Ukrainian side.
* We've heard about entire battlegroups being encircled by the Russians.
* We've heard that the Ukrainians need more of basically everything including retired F-16 pilots not to mention more artillery, anti-air missiles, etc...
* We've seen a fool hardy counter offensive before.
So why isn't anyone questioning this move?
Why am I on an island wondering how a force that has had to take to the streets to force conscription is all of a sudden able to gather forces to take and hold territory?
A reader chided me (low key) for wondering if this thing is a PR stunt.
I'm still there so tell me how I'm wrong.
