This is your annual reminder that, in addition to the Spruance DD, the Ticonderoga CG were designed to armed with an 8" gun, the MK-71.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I rise once again to state that Fincantieri is not responsible for the dog’s breakfast that was the Constellation Class process.
This is all in the lap of NAVSEA and OPNAV. Full stop.
As I wrote at the time, the 57mm part of the selection process, clearly done due to LCS program backwash, was an indicator that the same people, processes, etc that begat that disgrace were not purged.
Uniformed and civilian leadership post selection of the FREMM design failed their Navy and their nation due to their institutional failure to understand the larger picture.
Shipbuilder Behind Failed Constellation Class Wants Back Into The U.S. Navy Frigate Business
Fincantieri wants to leverage its U.S. infrastructure for another new frigate as the Navy is once again looking for foreign 'production ready' designs.

What made the British Empire the dominate naval and commercial force in the world was not controlling all the land masses on the globe, but controlling the key maritime chokepoints.
English Channel, Gibraltar, Malta, Suez, Cape of Good Hope, Aden, Hormuz & Singapore.
We are learning that lesson again today, as maritime chokepoints are now being contested.

This is your reminder of the great circle routes that ICBM would take to hit the center of the USA from: Iran (Red); Purple (Pakistani) [NB: these are also the routes from most of the Russian ICBM fields]; Russia (Yellow); PRC (Orange); NORK (White). Adjust actual launch sites and actual targets as needed. You can do this yourself on GoogleEarth.
Greenland is the shield for North America from most of the worst places in the world. To have it under utilized as such has always been a threat to the USA since the invention of intercontinental bombers and missiles.
This is by far an exceptional net good. Well meaning people can argue about how we got here, but we got here. No one else made it happen.

Even before the 9/11 attacks, Col. Richard "Rick" Rescorla was a decorated war hero with a Silver Star from his actions in Vietnam.
25 years ago today, Rescorla saved 2,687 people and paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Here’s how it happened. 🧵

Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

I carry appendix almost every day.
But let’s be honest:
Appendix carry is tolerable.
Not safe.
You’re carrying a loaded gun pointed at your femoral artery and everything else you really don’t want to lose.
A man with 15 years of firearms experience had an accidental discharge while drawing from appendix.
Beep to bang was less than half a second.
The round went through his holster and through his body.
A few degrees different, and he might not be here to tell the story.
That’s why I don’t draw at 100% on the range.
That’s why I hyperextend my trigger finger.
That’s why I look the gun back into the holster every single time.
And that’s why reholstering fast is stupid.
Nobody wins a gunfight by holstering fast.
So I want to know:
Do you carry appendix, or is that risk not worth it to you?
Drop your answer below.

Yes, you should be disgusted. No, we don't use shame and fear enough.
Everyone gets a shout out today: @nataliegwinters, @thomasbsauer, @brentdsadler ... and a few others who really owe everyone, "the other side of the story" that explains their behavior.

🚨 FIN DE CARRIÈRE POUR DARREN "The Damage" ELKINS ! 🇺🇸
Après une longue et carrière professionnelle, Darren Elkins raccroche les gants avec un bilan de 29 victoires pour 13 défaites.
Arrivé à l'UFC en 2010, il affrontait pour ses débuts 🇺🇸 Duane Ludwig, qu’il battait par décision. Un adversaire particulier puisqu’il est notamment connu pour avoir coaché la Team Alpha Male, où Elkins s’entraîne depuis plusieurs années, mais aussi T.J. Dillashaw.
Avec un record de 19-12 à l'UFC, "The Damage" aura marqué l’organisation grâce à son style ultra agressif et sa mentalité de guerrier. Il possède notamment des victoires face à 🇯🇵 Hatsu Hioki, 🇧🇷 Diego Brandão, 🇺🇸 Dennis Bermudez ou encore 🇺🇸 Michael Johnson.
Un combattant respecté, qui n'a jamais reculé devant personne. Je vous recommande vivement de regarder son combat à 🇧🇦 Mirsad Bektic, qui était tout simplement incroyablement énervé. 🫡 #UFCVegas120
