Pentagon says Chinese fighter buzzed US Air Force jet in ‘unsafe’ intercept over South China Sea
U.S. officials said a People’s Liberation Army Navy J-11 fighter maneuvered within about 10 feet of a U.S. RC-135 Rivet Joint reconnaissance plane’s wing during the intercept Dec. 21.

It seems to me that China is up to no good. Their attempts to intimidate our Air Force flying in the Taiwan area is frightening. They don’t seem to care. The last interaction had their planes within ten feet of a US plane. That is insane.

North Korea is getting very hostile. It is now loading up their weapons with nuclear devices.

Russia is stinging from the Ukrainian forces. The last report said that 840 Russians were killed in one day. Putin needs to wake up and have peace talks. It is his only way to come out alive.

I promised you some more endorsements in my last post and here is another one:

Signs of Hope for the Military: in and Out of the Trenches of Life, is a must read book for any military, which are hurting from PTD, TBI, anxiety, depression, etc. It has extensive valuable and doable suggestions for successful cope mechanisms. I have also enjoyed Doug Bolton sharing his own stories about his time in the military. He shows that he has been there and done that. This makes him very qualified to offer his advice, guidance and support.  

I applaud Doug for his insight and wiliness to share. I know you will too.

Colonel Dona Marie Iversen (Retired)
