Today, the nature of warfare has changed drastically, and technology plays a key role in shaping warfare tactics.

Black veterans accounted for onethird of homeless veterans, despite comprising only 12% of the overall veteran population.

Small robots are increasingly being used in military applications, from ISR to underwater mine clearance and inspection.

WHITE PRIVILEGE BY RICHARD MATZ / PUBLISHER wealthy of the backs of all oppressed blacks. Her allegiance to Communism and Communistic China is a known fact and her involvement in all the present and past riots has the blessings of the Chinese Progressive Association an arm of The Peoples Republic of China .
Great Strides
Great strides have been made by all blacks and the black communities over the last decades. That’s still not enough strides to make up for what blacks have suffered over the past years. But nonetheless the progress has continued to grow at a rapid pace and hopefully will continue to do so. The great news that Black unemployment was at its lowest levels before Covid hit gave hope to the progression of employment for all blacks and especially the younger black men and women. I refused to be blamed for anything because of the color of my skin. The only privilege I have ever been given is the privilege to work and work hard like anyone else to fulfill all my ambitions ,In my 45 years publishing the military press I have never been prejudiced or biased against any sex , religion , nationality or color of a persons skin. I have had Brown , Black and White salesman and saleswomen ,secretaries artist , graphic artist , receptionist and distribution drivers all based only on one requirement and that requirement was their ability to be profitable for the paper. Today is a different world ,a totally different world especially in the last few years , more so than it has been for the last 80 years of my life. I consider myself young for my age, I don’t look or act like a person with 4
eighty plus years on this earth. I have children in there fifties also children in their early twenties and both sets of children kept me on the go and up-to-date with all the happenings of this 21st-century . I believe that the quality of the sexes has nothing to do with men being men and women being women . The idea of letting children decide what sex they should be is totally ridiculous . Even a blind man can tell the difference between a baby boy and baby girl and God is the one that decided what sex they would be , not by some Meanie Mouth Liberal that’s trying to change our sex ,our country , our constitution and our population . I’m totally against Black Lives Matter Org. not black lives just the organization . Black Lives Matter is run by an avid communist , Alicia Garza who’s made herself
Race Agitator + 4 1/2 Million Dollar Home
The likes of Maxine Waters , George Soros , or anyone or group that encourages unrest between races and attacks against our police is tantamount to treason and disrespect to all Americans . Its bad enough what Coronavirus has done to our country but to verbally support rioting and violent protest is playing knowingly into China and Russia’s hands . And by the way … How does a Congresswoman who’s salary is $174,000 per year own a house worth $4 1/2 million dollars ???

was “extremely concerning,” considering the data was collected before the pandemic disrupted everyday life.
“We don’t really have the best indication yet of just how severe the pandemic has been on overall homelessness, so that’s why we are really cranking up
McDonough said the American Rescue Plan, which was signed into law earlier this month, included money to house homeless veterans and prevent homelessness. It provides more resources for about 37,000 veterans now receiving housing support through the VA, includes forgiveness for veterans with VA medical debts, and establishes a rapid retraining program for veterans who lost their jobs because of the pandemic.
Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of becoming homeless can call or visit their local VA Medical Center or Community Resource and Referral Center where VA staff are ready to help. Veterans and their families may also call 1-877-4AID-VET (1-877-424-3838) to access VA services. Explore www.va.gov/homeless to learn about VA programs for Veterans who are homeless and share that information with others.
The National Coalition for Homeless Veterans said their group was optimistic, despite the report.
DESTROYING COMBAT EFFECTIVENESS By Capt. Joseph R John
The Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin hired a Radical DOD Extremist Czar, Bishop Garrison, to search for and oust Extremists from the US Armed Forces. Bishop Garrison’s, official title is The Senior Advisor to The Secretary of Defense on Human Capital and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Garrison will oversee the implementation of immediate actions required to combat Patriot Extremism, as well as the development of the mid-term and long-term recommendations for the continued engagement to combat Patriot Extremism.
Garrison has been tasked with reviewing, updating, and redefining, what “Extremism” is, but that does not include members of ANTIFA and the Marxist Black Live Matter Domestic Terrorists groups who are Extremists. They have put over 8,000 Police Officers in hospitals, torched thousands of police cruisers, destroyed and torched over $2 billion in infrastructure in over 200 Sanctuary Cities, while being responsible for the
death of over 300 Americans, over the last 17 months. Bishop Garrison has repeatedly stated that anyone in the US Armed Forces who supported President Donald J. Trump is a racist and must be purged from the US military. Garrison does not see Army Green, instead he only sees “race”, unlike every recruit trained in the US Army over the last 80 years who have been taught that there is only one color in the US Army, Army Green.
www.militarypress.com
Garrison is only searching for MAGA Red and is determined to get all of those supporters of President Trump out of the US military. That is flagrant violation of the Civil Rights of every member of the US Armed Forces, but Secretary Austin has given Garrison free range to hunt out and eliminate career opportunities for any Patriot supporter of President Trump.

When you flip a coin, physics, not probability, determines how it will land. Mathematicians found that a coin is slightly more likely to land on the face that was up when you flipped it. The way a coin lands is not “random”; it’s easy, with a little practice, to manipulate your coin flip so that it lands the way you want it. The shortest sentence in English is “Go.” Yes, “Go,” all of two letters is a grammatically correct English sentence. It’s only a sentence, though, if it’s a command, because then “you” is the understood subject. It’s commanding the listener to go. If you’d rather a sentence with a separate word as the subject, “I am” is the shortest sentence, with three letters. © 2021 University of Maryland Global Campus

An Irishman, a Mexican and a redneck were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building. They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, “Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch I’m going to jump off this building.” The Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed, “Burritos again! If I get burritos one more time I’m going to jump off, too.” The redneck opened his lunch and said, “Bologna again. If I get a bologna sandwich one more time I’m jumping too.” Next day, the Irishman opens his lunch box, sees corned beef and cabbage and jumps to his death. The Mexican open his lunch, sees a burrito and jumps, too. The redneck opens his lunch, sees the bologna and jumps to his death also. At the funeral, the Irishman’s wife is weeping. She says, “If I’d known how really tired he was of corned beef and cabbage I never would have given it to him again!” The Mexican’s wife also weeps and says, “I could have given him tacos or enchiladas! I didn’t realize he hated burritos so much.”
Everyone turned and stared at the redneck’s wife. “Hey, don’t look at me,” she said. “He made his own lunches.”
Arkansas Vasectomy
After having their 10th child, an Arkansas couple decided that that was enough. So the husband went to his doctor and told him that he and his wife didn’t want to have any more children. The doctor told him that there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem. The doctor told the man that he was to go home, get a
So the couple drove to Missouri to get a second opinion. The doctor was just about to tell them about the procedure for a vasectomy when he noticed they were from Arkansas. This doctor also told the man to go home and get a cherry bomb, place it in a tin can, hold it next to his ear and count to 10. Figuring that both doctors couldn’t be wrong, the man went home, lit a cherry bomb and put it in a can. He held the can up to his ear and began to count. “1, 2, 3, 4, 5...”, at which point he paused, placed the can between his legs and resumed counting on his other hand.
