Pentagon says $3B in new Ukraine aid will ‘change dynamic’ in fight with Russia
Pentagon officials said it is the first time that U.S. military aid to Ukraine will include Bradleys, known as a “tank killer.” The new shipment of arms also includes 500 missiles for the armored personnel and attack vehicles to fire.

What should a person do when they are ridiculed for being in the military? Get in a brawl? No! We should be proud of our service to our country, and move on. Do not let radicals sway you from that thought.

I heard that a prominent congressman wants to put cutting the military finances money back on the table. That is not even close to something that makes any sense. We have to defend our country, and help out other countries that are struggling. A financial cut would almost eliminate that.

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.

Pentagon to raise military housing allowances in US by 12% on average

The new rates take effect Jan. 1 and reflect the largest year-over-year jump to housing allowances in many years. Housing allowance payments totaling an estimated $26.8 billion will be paid to roughly 1 million service members next year.

It has been a while since I last did a rant. I will rant today:

  1. President Biden has made so many bad mistakes our country is falling apart.
  2. Our troops need to be paid more.
  3. Leaving a Marine behind in Russia, is not acceptable.
  4. Give our troops better housing. Some places are a joke.
  5. Always hire a veteran first. They have been there and done that.
  6. The VA has a long history of denying veterans compensation. Time for a change.
  7. Some people do not like the military. Maybe they should see what it is like not to have one.
  8. Not all military people are good. There are some bad apples in the barrel.
  9. The way people treated our Vietnam veterans was appalling. They fought for our country.
  10. People need to think about enlisting. There is a severe shortage right now.
