On 23AUG2022, the U.S. Army released a video begging soldiers to voluntarily transfer to Republic of Korea (South Korea). The request coincides with the 72nd Anniversary of the U.S. Army’s deployment to Korea, but back then U.S. citizens were forced into the military (drafted, ask your grand parents or great grand parents), or sent to prison for refusing (ask Cassius Clay-Muhammad Ali about that).
U.S. 8th Army video, produced by Specialist Diana Rose Faulve, written by Sergeant Major Andrew Kosterman, presenting reasons why you should move to Korea:

It was revealed, on 04APR2022, that U.S. taxpayers were forced to give the African country of Nigeria a field hospital worth $1.6-million! This was the result of a May 2021 Pandemic survey of Agadez Regional Hospital, which concluded the hospital needed more bed space to deal with The Pandemic.

The U.S. Air Force admitting that Pandemic lockdown is doing more harm than good. On Joint Base McGuire Dix Lakehurst, on 24JUN2022 the 87th Medical group unveiled a so-called recharge room for Airman returning from lockdown. It is based on a similar operation on MacDill Air Force Base in Florida, except this one included input from the base Community Action Team and the local Red Cross: “Our efforts went one step further than Macdill and became a wing funded initiative instead of a self-help project. We hope that the idea of a recharge room will be implemented in similar squadrons across the installation.”-Rebecca Rhodes, health promotion director

At about 18:00, 09AUG2022, I noticed a lot of smoke northeast of where I live in Chubbuck, Idaho.
The fire grew as the sun went down.
It glowed through out the night. The wind was blowing north, northeast. During the night a strong windstorm blew in from the west (it was not forecasted). The next day, local news media reported the fire was located on the east side of the Fort Hall Reservation, homes were evacuated, burning at least 2-thousand-5-hundred acers (more than 1000 hectares). By the afternoon there were conflicting reports about the fire; TV news said it was under control and evacuations canceled, while newspapers reported it had re-ignited, was spreading and forcing more evacuations. I believe the newspapers because there was a sudden non-stop bucket brigade of water bomber flights from the Pocatello Airtanker Base.
Some video I made from my backyard, of Air Tractors and a MD87, flying over Chubbuck, on their way to bomb the Ross Fork Fire:
Some video I made of an Air Tractor and RJ85 being put to bed after a busy day of water bombing (they can only water-bomb during daylight):
As of 23:30, 10AUG2022, the Ross Fork Fire is still burning. The wind changed direction and kicked-up, this time we got teased with a little bit of rain. Thunderstorms are forecasted, but they’ve been bringing us more lightning than needed rain. There was also a wildfire in Power County, west of here, but it is supposedly extinguished.
The same area has a history of catching fire, July 2013:
How many times has U.S. led NATO sworn that it is not expanding towards Russia? The first ever permanent U.S. military base in NATO Poland now has an official name: Camp Kościuszko.

U.S. Army video by Specialist Devin Klecan, official base naming ceremony:
On 30JUL2022, a ceremony was held in Poland, announcing a name for the new U.S. base, named after Tadeusz Kościuszko, a Polish-Lithuanian military officer who joined the American Revolution against the British Empire in June 1776. After the war that created the United States, General Kościuszko returned to Poland in August 1784.

Residents of Kentucky reporting that this year’s flooding is the worst they’ve seen, with the Governor saying the death toll will hit double digits. State officials declared it to be catastrophic, and admitting they don’t have the labor to adequately respond to calls for rescues. Next door neighbor West Virginia is sending help.

In July 2020, the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) was undergoing $250-million in upgrades when it was set on fire and destroyed by a disgruntled Sailor (now awaiting Court Martial). In 2021, U.S. Navy (USN) investigators determined that pervasive lack of leadership onboard USS Bonhomme Richard created the environment that led to the sabotage. In July 2022, the USN announced punishments for at least 20 personnel in leadership positions, including the ship’s commanding officer. The disciplines range from letters of reprimand to loss of pay. A letter of censure has also been issued to the former commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet.
This year’s fire season doesn’t seem as profuse as previous years. Don’t tell that to people in Oklahoma, already more than 8-thousand acres (3237 hectares) have burned since 14JUL2022.
KOCO report from 15JUL2022, points out that the fire is negatively affecting a major food source:
