U.S. Army Soldiers’ quiet protest of President, live on TV?

I tried watching the military parade in DC, at least half of the Soldiers were out-of-step so bad it’s pathetic.  As a Cold War veteran I was insulted, we spent hours per day during Basic just marching around, even parade marching. I had to stop watching the DC parade. However, social media posts are claiming that the out-of-step Soldiers were protesting Trump! I reviewed the videos and it does look like they are intentionally marching out-of-step.

Red Coats invade Montana?

The United Kingdom’s Army is upgrading their Challenger-2 battle tanks with new armor and a new gun, the same gun used on the M1A1/2 Abrams; the German designed 120 millimeter (mm) Rheinmetall smoothbore, which launches various types of combustible cased rounds (various projectiles on a combustible plastic case with a metal base/’af-cap’).

The gun on the current Challenger-2 is also 120mm, but the British designed tube (barrel) is rifled and the ammo consists of a projectile which is loaded separately from the combustible case/bagged propellent.

To prep the Royal Wessex Yeomanry on how to operate the Rheinmetall gun, Montana’s 1-163rd Combined Arms Battalion (part of the Idaho based 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team, aka Snake River Brigade) is training the Red Coat tankers by letting them shoot-up the Montana mountains.

Wall War: February 2025.

Uncle Sam preps for War, 1941: Going Airborne!

Although the first official United States Army (USA) Airborne unit was created in 1943 (82nd Airborne Division), the USA had been experimenting with the idea of having Soldiers jump out of perfectly good aircraft since the end of World War One.

Most of the early Airborne training took place on Fort Benning (recently called Fort Moore, previously known as Fort Benning [a different Benning than the current Benning]), Georgia, with the Airborne Test Platoon (ATP) becoming the first to drop on Lawson Field, 16AUG1940.  The ATP consisted of 48 ‘volunteers’.  The 16th of August is now officially National Airborne Day in the U.S.

I edited together this video, taken from 1941 U.S. Army Air Corps/Forces (USAAC/USAAF) newsreels about the U.S. Army’s paratroop training:

Here are some more USAAC/USAAF Airborne newsreels from 1941:

Paratroopers have their own official National Airborne Day! Video shows you why!

LDS connection to new military training center in Utah!?

The federal U.S. Army Reserve is having a new training center built on the Utah Army National Guard’s Camp Williams.  Army Reserve training personnel will be redeploying from their home on Fort Douglas, Utah, to Camp Williams.

Fort Douglas was one of many locations, during World War One, where German prisoners of war (PoW) were held. This photo purports to show German PoWs building model ships.

Fort Douglas was established during The War Between the States, in 1862.

In the 1960s, the Army deployed a mobile recruiting post out of Fort Douglas. The photo was made by J. Hargreaves in Murray, Utah, 12OCT1965.

The Civil War era base was officially shutdown in 1991, at least for active duty (Regular Army) use as the federal Army Reserve continued to conduct their training on the now historic site.

The project would not be possible without direct help from the University of Utah and the people of Utah: According to the Army Reserve’s 358th Public Affairs Detachment, the taxpayers of Utah will spend “…$17 million to purchase the land and an additional $100 million to build the new Army Reserve Center and a maintenance facility.”  

Construction is being done by a contractor (Jacobsen Construction) who builds/renovates temples for the Church of Latter Day Saints (LDS). Video report via Specialist Ronald D. Bell, 06MAR2025:

The Army Reserve expects to move onto Camp Williams by Spring 2026.

The University of Utah has a long history of cooperation with Fort Douglas and will takeover the remaining 50 acres of the historic site.

Saving Private Boeing, with a ‘Top Secret’ price tag?

On 21MAR2025, U.S. President Donald John Trump announced the purchase of a top secret fighter jet for the U.S. Air Force (USAF), called the F-47. He also revealed that the cost of the aircraft is ‘top secret’, ostensibly claiming that revealing the cost would also reveal the latest and greatest ‘top secret’ technologies used by the ‘6th Generation’ fighter:

A USAF news release revealed that “Over the past five years, in strong partnership between the Air Force and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, X-planes have been laying the foundation for the F-47.” 

The USAF news release also points out that the contract for the F-47 is for only “a small number of test aircraft”, a price for production aircraft is still up-in-the-air.
