Army veteran Alan Bonnin would be alive today if not for an aggressive three-year fight with asbestos-causing mesothelioma that ultimately took his life. The hardworking husband, father and retired soldier never questioned his work as a longtime mechanic and HVAC technician after leaving the armed forces. His specialty of working on brakes and then later for 30 years at a heating and cooling company is believed to be how he contracted the cancer from the hidden asbestos risk he faced on the job. “I never thought that I would be affected by something like mesothelioma,” Bonnin said in a testimonial…

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey signed a sweeping gun control ordinance on Wednesday that bans semiautomatic rifles classified as “assault-style weapons,” magazines holding more than a state-set capacity, and unserialized firearms, and that the City of Minneapolis has limited authority to actually enforce. The Minneapolis “Safe Firearms Act” was passed unanimously by the City Council the previous week. It now sits in legal territory that has already produced one active lawsuit in a neighboring Minnesota city and is poised to generate another. The Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus, which filed suit against a similar St. Paul ordinance last fall and recently launched…
The best running vests carry water, fuel, and safety layers without bounce, bulk, or breaking your stride. Over a three-month test cycle, ultrarunner Constance Mahoney tested three new running hydration vests, logging more than 30 miles in each. From a 50K in Northern California to mountain missions and crewing for a 200-mile ultra-race, Mahoney tested each vest for fit, bounce, storage access, breathability, and long-run comfort. The Salomon Adv Skin 12 remains our best overall pick for its dialed fit, smart storage, and proven long-distance comfort. Meanwhile, the Decathlon Kiprun Essential Trail 5L earned our budget award for delivering dependable…
It sure looks that way. The Broncos ownership, using a vaguely named LLC, has been buying up property along Denver’s Eighth Avenue, which Broncos general counsel Tim Aragon recently described as the “front door” to the city’s stadium district. According to the website BusinessDen, Aragon told attendees at a BusinessDen event held in March that, “some of the things that existed in those properties might not be things that we wanted,” and it appears a local gun shop may be one of those undesired businesses. Alec Henkelman runs High Country Armory, and he got a…
It started as a dream and a vision in 1999 to memorialize the spirit of Marines and Sailors serving in the Carolinas for future generations. On June 8, that dream officially becomes a reality. Starting as an idea floated at the tail end of the 20th century by a trio of Marines—Maj. Gen. Ray Smith, Col. Bruce Gombar and Sgt. Maj. Joe Houle—the Carolina Museum of the Marine will officially open its doors to the public on June 8. The 25,000-square-foot building located in Jacksonville, N.C., broke ground on May 17, 2024, and cost more than $30 million to construct.…

As a member of the Army’s 506th Infantry unit, Paul Kim had a front-row seat to some of the most intense fighting of the Iraq War. The experience changed Kim and his fellow troops forever, leading to the groundbreaking 2010 PBS documentary “The Wounded Platoon,” showing a group of young men torn apart by crime, depression and suicide relating to mental health struggles from their time in Iraq. Kim fought his own battles with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) but grew frustrated with finding quality access to mental health services. Through frustration came an idea – what if there was a…

Sixteen American soldiers killed on D-Day were interred in a communal grave at Omaha National Cemetery last week, on May 7, more than 81 years after a mine blast and fire aboard their landing craft kept them from ever reaching the beaches of Normandy. The soldiers had been aboard Landing Craft, Infantry (Large)-92, a Coast Guard-manned vessel carrying roughly 200 Army troops toward Omaha Beach on the morning of June 6, 1944. Their remains had spent decades buried together as unknowns at the Normandy American Cemetery in France before the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency exhumed them in 2021 for forensic…
