“Have landed. Unusually heavy opposition. 70% casualties. Can’t hold..” - unknown, D-Day, Tarawa - By the end of the first day, the outcome of the battle was still up in the air. Col Shoup didn’t know they were winning yet. He didn’t say his famous line until the next day. - I

There are five kinds of people I instantly distrust: 1. People who don’t like dogs. 2. People whose “favorite” sportsball teams coincidentally just won the league championship. 3. People who have the right of way at a four-way stop yet insist on waving you through to be

Mind reader, Max Major, asked Marines, “What’s a piece of information that would be impossible for me to know?” One Marine said, “What breed of dog I have…” 🤷🏻 Got’em!

Gnight, comrades and cubs… 🥱 Thank you to all of you who trudged through this old tanker bear’s rumblings about education today. If even a little bit of it made sense, then it was worth every tap of these worn-out paws. 😉 But now it’s time for this grumpy Soviet tanker relic

The utmost RESPECT for these incredible WARRIORS
Tarawa continued - Within a span of 10 minutes the Amtracs had landed over 1,500 Marines on Betio’s north shore but, the follow on waves in the landing craft could not clear the reef due to a neap tide. - The Amtracs ferried Marines from the landing craft at the reef to the beach

What a straightforward SMART Marine. God bless you, dear warrior.
I’m going to say this as appropriately as possible: If you don’t like America, you should leave. This man speaks for so many of us here in the States. We don’t want you here if your goal is to change the country, we don’t want you here if you hate the country. Why would you

Last thought for today on education, comrades and cubs… and yeah, I’m gonna keep beating this drum because if we don’t learn from history, we’ll swallow the same steaming pile of sh*t again. 🤬 💥In the USSR, the Party didn’t “influence” education... it OWNED it.💥 ☠️Teachers

“We could see the American landing craft coming towards us like dozens of spiders scattering over the surface of the water. One of my men exclaimed, ‘THE GOD OF DEATH HAS COME!’” —Warrant Officer Kiyoshi Ota, 7th Sasebo Special Landing Force, Tarawa

"We did what was asked of us"
“We did what was asked of us, for our country. This is a photo I borrowed from Dave Fannin, who was with D Co. 3/8 infantry. These guys had been through Hell in the Plei Trap Valley. We think this is from April '69, possibly somewhere in the bush near An Khe. Dave calls it

In this Col Waterhouse painting, Lt William Hawkins and his Scout-Sniper Platoon along with a handful of combat engineers clear the pier, five minutes before the first wave would hit the beaches. - This pier extended some 500yds into the lagoon, splitting the landing beaches, and

Oh yeah the dem woman that liked texting with Epstein during the hearings. Turns out she also helped Epstein gain a 300 million dollar tax credit, reducing his taxes by as much as 90%

Thank God @SenMarkKelly isn’t in uniform anymore and thank God he wasn’t the aircraft commander of the Enola Gay in 1945. A man this confused about duty and responsibility would’ve never had the conviction to make the decisions that ended a world war and saved American lives.
