Seems like I am pounding the Israel war a little too much, But it is getting furious over there. There are now 30 Americans dead. The good news, I just heard a few minutes ago, is that the Hamas have released two American citizens. A mother and daughter from Chicago. Praise the Lord for that.

However, our military bases in Syria, and Iraq are being bomb with drones. One civilian killed. There is no doubt that Iran is behind this. We are able to stop most of the drones, but some are slipping through.

The are many stories about the military that have been forgotten, but I interviewed four WWII veterans for my new book, and they are amazing. Each one had a near death experience. They didn’t do anything heroic, but put their lives on the line.

The book is called, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the Trenches of Life.

Kim Jong Un and Putin Plan to Meet in Russia to Discuss Weapons

Russia wants more weapons for its war in Ukraine, and a North Korean delegation recently traveled to Russia by train to plan for Kim Jong Un’s visit this month, officials say.

Larry L. Traylor landed his Cobra in the middle of a firefight so a reconnaissance team could jump on the skids for extraction — a combat first.

If Kim Jong Un gives Russia weapons, the US warns there will be action against them. Rightfully so. The dictator seems to have a death wish. Everything he does moves him closer to oblivion.

It is such a waste of time to have to deal with North Korea. They would be wiped out very quickly if they ever stated a war.

We often forget the heroics of our veterans in WWII. I love the story about a WWII pilot who shot down 6 Japanese bombers in one mission. He was declared an ace on his first mission.

The are many more stories that have been forgotten, but I interviewed four WWII veterans for my new book, and they are amazing. Each one had a near death experience. They didn’t do anything heroic, but put their lives on the line.

The book is called, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the Trenches of Life.
