The D-Day exhibit inside Fort Campbell’s new Tennessee Wings of Liberty Museum does not begin on the beach. It begins behind it. Inside the museum that officially opened this month is the story of June 6, 1944, told by the soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division who jumped into Normandy before dawn, landing behind Utah Beach to help open the way for the amphibious forces that followed. The framing is intentional. The museum is dedicated not only to Fort Campbell’s units; rather, to the history of “vertical envelopment,” or the Army’s term for striking from above—whether by parachute, helicopter or…

While electric vehicles are getting more versatile and more realistic daily driver propositions by the year as manufacturers continually develop them, used examples that have seen their value drop considerably are generally still best suited for the city. Their limited ranges aren’t such a handicap when you’re spending most of your time threading between traffic and through tight city streets, while trips tend to last only ten or twenty miles as opposed to north of 200. Their instant torque and lack of a conventional gearbox also make driving in cities more straightforward and less frustrating than a normal car most…
This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge. Asian and European equities climbed on Monday, while U.S. equity futures jumped and Brent crude fell, as signs of a possible U.S.-Iran deal boosted risk appetite. To note, the U.S. is on holiday. Both sides appear to be moving closer to ending the three-month conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. However, overnight comments from senior Iranian officials suggest gaps remain, particularly over the future of Iran’s nuclear program and uranium enrichment. “It is true that a consensus was reached on many of the topics discussed, but no one can…
A deadly shooting involving military police officers at Fort Hood over Memorial Day weekend has triggered a major Army criminal investigation and renewed scrutiny over security, use of force, and violence at one of the military’s most historically troubled installations.

TL;DR: Ticks spread disease by attaching to people or animals and feeding on blood. The best way to…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog. For most people, the price of gasoline is the most obvious consequence of the war in the Middle East. As I write this article, the average price of a gallon of gasoline in the United States is $4.56. Of course, in some parts of the country, consumers are paying much more than that. This is a big story, and the truth is that gasoline prices are going to go even higher in the months ahead. But if you think that the price of gasoline is bad, just wait…
Yes, the word “happy” is in quotes, but there’s a reason for that. As a veteran, I think it’s important to understand Memorial Day and why I think our happiness needs to be put in the correct context. We should celebrate today. We should enjoy our cookouts and parties. We can and should kick back and relax on our three-day weekend.We should celebrate, though, not because it’s a three-day weekend, but because thousands of Americans fought and died for us, and we should celebrate their memories.For the record, I’m also including those we’ve lost since…
CAIRO (AP) — A deal appears to be emerging between the United States and Iran to end the war and open the Strait of Hormuz, and U.S. President Donald Trump over the weekend said it had been “largely negotiated.” It is not clear when or how the deal might be finalized and when its various parts will take effect. Trump spoke after calls with allies in the Middle East, including a separate call with Israel. Details come from two regional officials and a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive negotiations. Here’s what we know…
