The players aren't even moving in sync. Thought this was about discipline and doing things uniform? Let's ignore ^ this ^ and the fact that football players are not military operators - and lets focus in on the fact that this SEAL hell week style of training is NOT how they train once they have been selected. It is used to weed out those who do not want to actually be there. Now maybe that is what is happening with this - but doing so in June before camp in August - doubtful. Going through one difficult training session will not make the players stand on the goal line - put their hands in the huddle - and then say "hey fellas - remember when we did that seal training in June - we got this - lets go score a TD" Now, I have been wrong before and will be wrong again - but this seems like a massive waste of time and funds - especially when support staff can train the players hard AND are underpaid. How does admin allow things like this? S&C coaches ALWAYS have to be aware of the transition periods - did this seal training happen right after May break? If so - seems like a TON of volume after a short amount of time..... Going through one event is not as hard as going through an entire off-season or year and doing ALL the little things right. Anyone can suck it up and get one training session done. Who can show up for the long haul. Focus on things like quality training: Sprint Jump Throw Push Pull Hinge Carry Crawl Not this. Athletes deserve better.

🇺🇸 “It Was Pure Hell, and they committed War Crimes.” — Phil Tourney recalls from the USS Liberty Attack "We didn't even get any help from our government for 17 hours". "We all became Doctors, doing everything we could." Moe Shafer, USS Liberty Survivor. Nearly six decades later, when USS Liberty survivors speak about June 8, 1967, the emotion is still there. Not rehearsed. Not political. Just raw memory from men who lived through something most people cannot imagine. The attack lasted nearly two full hours. Jets strafed the ship. Napalm burned the decks. Then the torpedo struck — lifting the ship out of the water before slamming it back down. Many sailors believed in that moment the USS Liberty was about to roll over and sink. But the ordeal didn’t stop there. Survivors describe torpedo boats circling the ship and firing at anything that moved. Life rafts were destroyed as they were lowered into the water — the very rafts meant to carry the most seriously wounded sailors if the ship had to be abandoned. Inside the ship, chaos turned into desperate courage. With 174 men wounded, the crew became medics, nurses, and surgeons for one another. The ship’s doctor — himself gravely wounded — reportedly treated others and saved countless lives that night. When survivors tell the story today, it isn’t just about the attack. It’s about the suffering they saw, the friends they lost, and the way ordinary sailors fought to keep each other alive. Some memories never fade. Honor the 34. Stand with the Survivors.

“Bahawalpur.” I still have chills in my heart from when I first heard that town’s name in late January 2002. For the 23 years since, I have reported on how Pakistani intelligence and military leaders have used that city — Bahawalpur — in the southern province of Punjab as a base for its homegrown domestic terrorists. When I heard India bombed training camps in Pakistan this week in Operation Sindoor, in response to a Pakistani terrorist rampage in India’s Kashmir state, I had one city’s name on my lips: Bahawalpur. Did India bomb Bahawalpur? It did. I knew then India was striking actual hubs for Pakistan’s homegrown domestic terrorism. Why do I know? My friend, WSJ reporter Danny Pearl, went to Bahawalpur in December 2001 with a notebook and a pen. Gen. Pervez Musharraf had just promised he was shutting down Pakistan’s militant groups after a strike by Pakistan’s terrorists against the Parliament in India, and Danny reported on the militant offices in Bahawalpur. He literally knocked on their doors. Dear Dr. Judea Pearl, this story is a window into Danny’s reporting enterprise. And because people will wonder: Danny was no cowboy. This was a calculated low-risk reporting trip because no journalist had been targeted for kidnapping in Pakistan. Around that time, Danny sent me an email: “I’m anxious to go to Afghanistan, but I’m not anxious to die.” What did Danny learn? The militant training camps were open for business in Bahawalpur. On Jan. 23, 2002, Danny left a home I had rented in Karachi, Pakistan, for an interview. I learned Danny’s fixer, Asif Farooqi, had arranged an interview for Danny through a man named “Arif.” Danny didn’t know it but Arif was the PR man for a militant group, Harkutul Mujahadeen. What was Arif’s hometown? Bahawalpur. The police launched a manhunt to find Arif in Bahawalpur. We learned Arif’s family faked a funeral for Arif. Police found him trying to board a bus in Muzaffarabad, across the country by Pakistan’s border with Kashmir. It is another town India said it bombed terrorist training facilities. Arif had handed Danny off to Omar Sheikh,a British-Pakistani dropout from the London School of Economics, radicalized in the 1990s in London mosques. He went to Pakistan to train in these militant training camps. Then he kidnapped tourists in India. He was caught and jailed but on Dec. 31, 1999, he was traded for hostages in the hijacking of Indian Airlines Flight 814. Omar Sheikh was freed with Pakistani terrorist leader Masood Azhar, whose family was allegedly killed this week by India’s air strike in Bahawalpur. Did Pakistan jail Omar Sheikh and Masood Azhar when they returned to Pakistan with a third terrorist, freed from India’s jails? No. Pakistan’s military and intelligence gave them safe passage. They used them as weapons against India. But in fact these domestic terrorists have waged war against innocents in Pakistan, like civil society activists, Benazir Bhutto, Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, schoolchildren and countless others. Their extremism has ruined Pakistan, and Pakistanis can’t blame America for creating the mujahideen to fight the Soviets in the 1980s. Pakistan has had a duty to dismantle those terrorist bases — for even the safety of its own people. What India is doing is a strategic attack on terrorist bases Pakistani military and intelligence should have eliminated but never did in their obsession to take over Kashmir. You will see parallels in the propaganda messages against India and Israel. Like Hamas, Pakistani terrorists crossed a border to kill. Now, Pakistani propagandists call themselves victims of their “fascist” “colonizer” neighbor. It’s the Reverse Uno strategy of moral inversion, just like Dave Portnoy got from the Temple student who won’t take responsibility for promoting the “HATE THE JEWS” sign. Don’t fall for it. Nations, communities and people must own up to their extremism, from Bahawalpur to beyond.

B-17F Flying Fortress 42-30867 drifts out of formation pursued by a Luftwaffe fighter while the crew bails out on October 9th 1943 This segment of Luftwaffe gun camera footage is unique in that it is possibly the only surviving clip where the aircraft under attack is identifiable by its squadron codes. In the last frames the code N-TU is visible suggesting this was 351st Bomb Group 510th Bomb Squadron Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress 42-30867. The 351st Bomb Group's mission narrative indicates that this was the aircraft's second combat mission having been delivered to the 510th two weeks earlier, and it was one of five of the group's aircraft to be lost that day: Mission No. 47 – October 9, 1943 The Group was briefed to attack the Arado Aircraft Factory at Anklam, Germany. The crews were very concerned when confronted by the mission details. It was the longest flight to date, with expected moderate to heavy flak concentrations. After the briefing, Sgt. Pete Zibas, the engineer on Lt. Garcia’s aircraft, recalls the gunners clamoring for an additional four cans of ammunition per gun. Twenty-one planes were led by Colonel Burns, Captain Carraway, and Lt. Norris with Lt. Stackhouse navigating and Lt. Winter as bombardier. The formation crossed the North Sea at 4,000 feet and prior to climbing to bombing altitude, the fuel was cross-fed into the main tanks and the bomb bay tanks jettisoned. As this operation was being carried out in Flight Officer Warring’s ship, 42-3152, fire broke out, but the crew managed to extinguish the flames and the ship continued in formation. Shortly after crossing the Danish coast, the first fighter attacks commenced. Thirty to fifty ME 109s pressed home many close attacks. The first plane to be hit was the second element lead, 42-30790, flown by Captain Morse. A burst of 20mm exploded in the left wing setting it on fire. Captain Morse dropped his wheels and left the formation under control. All the crew bailed out safely. At the start of the bomb run the enemy fighters broke off their attacks, leaving the formation to suffer the attentions of the Anklam flak gunners. Smoke from the bombs of the preceding combat wing obscured the target and as a consequence most of the bombs fell in the center of the city. Flight Officer Warring was still experiencing mechanical difficulties. He was force to jettison his bombs after the target when the bomb bay doors had to be hand-cranked open. The formation turned for home and flew straight into the Luftwaffe’s assembled forces. ME 110s and a few JU 88s stood off and fired rockets into the formation. Lt. Maser’s aircraft, 42-29603, left the formation with its ailerons shot out and number three engine on fire. All ten crewmen bailed out from the stricken aircraft, but only nine survived. What happened to Sgt. Gorsuch, the ball turret gunner, is not known. Sgt. Gorsuch was on his 25th mission, having substituted for the regular crew member, Sgt. Nadeau, who had been wounded on a previous mission. At the same time Lt. Christman, in 42-30867, and the luckless Flight Officer Warring went down. Despite injuries to several of Flight Officer Warring’s crew, they all managed to bail out. Eight members of Lt. Christman’s crew survived. Sgt. Blais and Butterbach were killed in the fighter attack. The fighter attacks persisted for some three and a half-hours after leaving the target. In the final stages, ME 109s and FW 190s from coastal fields joined in the attacks. It is believed that it was these fighters that shot down 42-29868, flown by Lt. Turley. Only Lt. Williams, the copilot, and Sgt. Curtis, the top turret gunner, survived the crash into the North Sea. They were picked up by the Germans near the Danish coast. When the Group landed at Polebrook it was found that Lt. Nardi’s ship, 42-29877, had returned with an unexploded rocket wedged in the main spar. Of the crew on board 42-30867, Radio Operator David Pressel, Ball Turret Gunner John Butterbach and Tail Gunner Edmond Blais were killed in action. The rest of the crew consisting of Pilot Lloyd Christman, Copilot: James Laird, Navigator Eldred Hancy, Bombardier John Hemm, Flight Engineer Commodore Sharp and Waist Gunners James White and William Klink baled out successfully and were taken prisoner. Of the 16 aircraft from the group assigned to the mission that made it back to base, all suffered some form of battle damage, a lot of it from detonations of Werfer-Granate 21 rockets that were used by Luftwaffe fighters to break up the "combat box" defensive formations. Six men on board the returning aircraft were wounded in action, one of them seriously. With almost a quarter of the unit shot down, this is typical of the unsustainable loss rate suffered by the Eighth Air Force while flying without fighter escort during the time the Luftwaffe was still a force to be reckoned with. I was unable to determine the identity of the Luftwaffe pilot awarded this particular victory however from the footage itself it appears that the attacking aircraft is a twin-engined fighter, likely a Messerschmitt Bf 110. There were several Zerstörergeschwader and even Nachtjagdgeschwader operating the type that claimed B-17 bombers on this day and the Missing Air Crew Report for 42-30867 does not give a precise location of the loss. #guncamera #guncam #b17 #flyingfortress #ww2 #wwii

🐯ah, I have something. Since I’m someone who plays LoL, there is a really funny episode pertaining to LoL 🐨LoL? 🐯League of Legend, really funny story~ 🐿️from the military? 🐯yes 🐯>🐨 hyung maybe you won’t find it funny 🐨I know what it is~ 🐯when I was in the training camp, you know how on weekends they ask who wants to go to church or religious services, right? 🐯when you go to the Catholic service at the training camp, they’ll give you a baptismal name the first time you go~ 🐿️yeah that’s right~ 🐯in the olden days, you had to attend dawn prayers and stuff before they give you a baptismal name. But at the training camp, they apparently just give you one the first time you go. 🐯I wanted to receive such a name but I didn’t know, so I started studying~ there are names such as Luca, Chris~ 🐥ah I know, there are a list of names starting from jan ~ 🐯so apparently there are names matching each month~ 🐯so I asked (the rest of the unit) ‘perhaps is anyone interested in going to the catholic service with me’? *other recruits talking among themselves* 🗣️if we go what will we get? 👥oh! They’ll give out breads! 👥ok I want to go! 👥I’ll also go! 🐯so I brought around 8 people with me~ 🐯so as we were walking in single file like this, I said, “do you guys remember about the baptismal name, are you guys going to get one too?” 👥Yeah I want to get one too! I want to get Mordekaiser *LoL Champion* 🐿️🐨🐥*laughing* 🐿️they want to get game names~ like Ahri?~ 👥I want to get Miss Fortune 🗣️I’m Lux!!! 🐯*you guys it’s not what you’re deciding* *laughing*

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 HOW HARD IS IT FOR IRAN TO HIT A U.S AIRCRAFT CARRIER? Critics love to call aircraft carriers sitting ducks. The argument sounds simple enough: a ship the size of a small city must be easy to find, easy to hit, and devastating to lose. In the age of hypersonic missiles and satellite surveillance, some analysts insist the carrier is already obsolete, but reality is far less dramatic. Aircraft carriers are not lonely targets drifting across the ocean. They operate inside one of the most sophisticated defensive systems ever built, something the U.S. Navy calls “defense in depth.” Think of it less like a single ship and more like a moving fortress. The first layer is the carrier strike group itself. Destroyers and cruisers surround the carrier, each equipped with the Aegis combat system, a network of radar and missiles capable of tracking hundreds of threats simultaneously. Incoming missiles can be intercepted hundreds of miles away, often long before the carrier itself is even in danger. The second layer lives in the sky. Aircraft like the E-2D Hawkeye patrol high above the fleet, acting as airborne radar stations that can spot low-flying missiles or enemy aircraft long before ship-based sensors could. If something suspicious appears, fighter jets such as F/A-18s or F-35s can intercept the threat before a shot is even fired. In other words, the battle is pushed far away from the carrier itself. If a missile somehow slips through those outer layers, electronic warfare becomes the next shield. Modern carriers can jam or confuse a missile’s guidance system, essentially blinding it or feeding it false information. Chaff clouds and flares create fake targets in the sky, turning the missile’s final seconds into a guessing game. Sometimes the missile never finds the ship at all. And then there is the last line of defense. Close-range interceptors like Sea Sparrow and Rolling Airframe Missiles can shoot down threats at the final moment. If everything else fails, the Phalanx close-in weapon system, a rapid-fire Gatling gun often described as a “wall of lead,” can tear an incoming missile apart just seconds before impact. None of this means aircraft carriers are invincible. Every military system has vulnerabilities, and modern anti-ship weapons are increasingly capable. But the idea that carriers are easy targets, helpless giants waiting to be sunk, misunderstands how they actually operate. A carrier is not just a ship. It's a layered defense network, a mobile airbase, and the center of an entire fleet designed to make hitting it one of the most difficult tasks in modern warfare.
