US delayed shooting down Chinese spy balloon partly to aid recovery efforts, defense officials say.
The ongoing debris collection from the downed balloon in the shallow waters near South Carolina is easier and safer than it would have been in Alaska, Defense Department officials told senators Thursday.

I have a fun trip today. Going to lunch with a Vietnam veteran. He was a helicopter pilot, and a gunner. He is very private about his time their. So far I can get information about his being wounded with Chrapinell. He didn’t get the Purple Heart medal, because he didn’t feel like he deserved it. He said he lost too many friends, and he is alive.

I am working on him to accept the medal, because I can arrange that for him.

There are many veterans that have that mentality. They feel so badly that their buddies died and they lived. I have interviewed several veterans for my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: IN and Out of The Trenches of Life, that feel that way.

House GOP demands visitor logs in Biden classified docs case

House Republicans on Sunday demanded the White House turn over all information related to its searches that have uncovered classified documents at President Joe Biden’s home and former office in the wake of more records found at his Delaware residence.

_______________________________________________________________

Interesting that the White House thinks it is not as serious to find classified documents in Biden’s residences. They still think Trump’s documents are much worse. A clear cover up in my opinion.

Russia is going all out in its attack on Ukraine. Rumors are that they are running out of weapons; their military is freezing to die, and thousands are dead. Not a nice picture for Russia.

Japan and the United States have become close allies. They are training together and planning for the future. Quite a switch since WWII.

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.
