Regular reminder that LOAC is about two things: creating space for a lasting peace when the fight’s over, and more importantly, ensuring that when your own troops come home they don’t spend the rest of their lives looking in the mirror and seeing a monster look back at them.

It wouldn’t be the holidays without our annual War on the Rocks book roundup. Check off your gift list or pick a book to enjoy by the fire. Happy reading.

Much to be thankful for this year, including @playersaidblog including #ManeuverWarfare on their 2025 Holiday Wargamers Buyers’ Guide! It truly is a great stocking (or cargo pocket) stuffer for the Marine (or soldier, sailor, gamer, etc) in your life! https://t.co/5I49HYmvRu

Well, W’s a W but that was a blood bath and sloppy overall. Can’t take that into the back end of the season. #NEPats

#StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦 Ukrainians truly need this right now — even if as a sign of solidarity. And constant, stubborn solidarity goes a long way.

Russia shares its culture with Ukraine every night. There’s nothing left to learn about them.
