In the days after terrorists attacked the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001, families began arriving at a hotel in Crystal City, Virginia, carrying questions that often had no answers. Some still hoped their loved ones might have survived. The FBI was collecting toothbrushes, hairbrushes and other personal items that could provide DNA. A hotel ballroom became a briefing room. Families waited as victims were identified. And Bonnie Carroll was there. Carroll, founder and president of the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors, or TAPS, had been in Alaska when the attacks occurred. An Air Force reservist assigned to the Pentagon’s Office…

Ask anyone the kinds of things that preppers stockpile and you’ll hear the same things every time: food, water, flashlights, batteries, first aid kits, etc. These things are the foundation of any serious prepper plan, and for good reason. They’re things that will keep you alive when the power goes out or the store shelves empty. But there’s another category of gear that a lot of experienced preppers rarely bring up in conversation. These are things that don’t make it into the typical beginner checklists, not because they’re useless, but because they sit in a legal gray area or carry…
A couple of days ago, I wrote about a guy bringing a knife to a gunfight. Yes, it’s a cliché, but it’s also funny, so I’m going to mock such people because they deserve it. But what about something even dumber? Like, say, they think they’re a dwarf from Dungeons & Dragons and arm themselves accordingly? That’s what happened with one Florida Man.No, seriously, it sure looks like he thought he was a fantasy race or something, because his weapon selection left a lot to be desired.On Monday night, deputies responded to a property along Lake…
The U.S. military said it hit three Iranian oil tankers, after accusing Iran of targeting its warships. The past week saw the first exchange of fire after a month of relative calm. Meanwhile, the U.S. ambassador to Israel has again condemned settler violence in the occupied West Bank. Iranian-backed Houthi rebels accused Yemen’s government of killing three people in attacks. Israeli strikes killed three people in southern Lebanon. Here’s a look at the news in the Middle East. Full coverage can be found here.

Isaac Richey is a victim of New York’s SAFE Act and his rights were taken away. Richey filed for a summary judgment in his years-long battle, hoping to gain relief. In 2019 Richey was stationed in New York while in the military. As previously reported, Richey voluntarily sought mental health help while he was having a rough time in his life. That admission led to Richey being treated as if he were involuntarily committed. Portions of New York’s SAFE Act include provisions where medical professionals have the power to permanently disqualify people from firearm ownership.…

While the Bruen decision did leave the door open for some gun control laws, it’s one thing about the decision that I don’t like. I can live with it, because the door is only barely open, but it’s still not the ideal decision the Supreme Court could have made. I’ve said before that what I’d like to see is something akin to, “What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ told you this crap was OK?” But while Bruen may have been less than perfect, it was still pretty good overall.Unfortunately, anti-gunners don’t care, and as…

The Navy’s experiment with manufacturing replacement parts at sea during RIMPAC 2026 showed that 3D printers can shorten supply lines. It also exposed a harder problem: The machines accomplish little without qualified operators, reliable materials, sound certification rules and a system capable of moving finished parts where sailors need them. Morgan Bower, director of the FLEETWERX Innovation Hub, described those lessons in an interview with Military.com following the exercise. FLEETWERX serves as a partnership intermediary between the Naval Postgraduate School, military organizations, universities and private companies, helping the school bring outside technology into operational experiments such as RIMPAC. The exercise…
