This is not for the weak minded or those with a weak stomach. Don't blink. Don't turn your eyes away. This is the world we live in. The US lost an ambassador in Libya and it was a tragedy. Today is a tragedy for Russia. I wonder what their response will be.

BREAKING: Russian Ambassador Assassinated On Video In Turkey
This is not for the weak minded or those with a weak stomach. Don't blink. Don't turn your eyes away. This is the world we live in. The US lost an ambassador in Libya and it was a tragedy. Today is a tragedy for Russia. I wonder what their response will be.

Quote about pain
"I can honestly say that every painful experience I've had has helped me to become a stronger and better person. That's why pain is something to be embraced, not hated. Let it mold you, but never let it stop you from pursuing what you want in life."

Army defeats Navy 21-17
Enjoy it while you can, Army. 2016 was the year for upsets.
I would like to take this opportunity to share a moment of silence for the plebe class of 2020 right now as a dark period of hazing is about to begin.
Russia can delivery thermonuclear bombs on a drone submarine
"The Pentagon has confirmed that a new Russian nuclear delivery drone is real. The undersea drone, which carries an enormous nuclear warhead to destroy coastal cities and military bases, was tested late last month. The test was leaked by unnamed sources to The Washington Free Beacon.
Russia calls the system "Ocean Multipurpose System 'Status-6," and it is allegedly capable of traveling underwater to distances of to 6,200 miles. It can submerge to depths of 3,280 feet and travel at speeds of up to 56 knots."
Quite an impressive delivery system for nuclear war. I'm glad things have never come to this. Subs are hard to track, especially since the Russians make some of best silent subs on Earth.

New US Army Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle
"The new AMPV is, like its predecessor M113, a tracked vehicle engineered to handle rugged and rigorous terrain; however unlike it predecessor the new infantry carrier will be built with new, reinforced armor, improved mobility and state-of-the art next-generation newtorking technology such as force tracking systems, mission command applications and Satcom links."
Both the Marine Corps and the Army operate vehicles that are practically ancient now. We have many from the Vietnam-Era still serving. Right now that's the like the equivalent of using Sherman WWII tanks during the Gulf War. It's really about time the Army got some kind of upgrade. Hope the Marines jump on this too.

The more and more this happens, the more and more this seems to prove that Islam is just not compatible with Western values. Germany is learning this the hard way apparently.

Shielding a tank was a tough job in Soviet Russia
Scrolling through my feed and came across this. If you have a dark sense of humor, this might give you a little laugh.
