Israeli news media reports at least 200 Iranian missiles targeted Israel, also confirms Yemen launched missiles as well.

Iran sends message (through Swiss Ambassador) to Trump stating they believe the U.S. was directly involved with attack upon Iran.

Consider Blackfoot for your next ‘Holiday’: …with Oldsmobile, in 1955 style!

On ‘Holiday’ with Oldsmobile, in 1955 style!

Oldsmobile offered a Holiday package on its sedans from 1949 to 1970.  The 1950s Oldsmobiles featured a globe ornament on the nose of the hood, just below the ‘rocket’.

This 1955 Olds Holiday must’ve turned the world upside down, going by its hood ornament.

This 1955 four door Holiday was seen at the Tadd Jenkins auto-show-burnout display in Blackfoot, Idaho, 07JUN2025.

Bullets & Rockets, OCTC-Idaho!

Back ‘in the day’ when I spent many Summers, and occasional weekends (as both a 13F and a 19K), on what is now known as Orchard Combat Training Area (OCTC) it was called Orchard Training Area (OTA), and it is not in Boise, it is at least 18 miles south of Boise.  Since the name was changed (sometime between 2011 and 2012) to OCTC the area has been greatly expanded and is now part of the larger Orchard Training Complex (OTC).

In March 2025, the U.S. Army’s 17th Field Artillery Brigade (from Joint Base Lewis McChord, Washington) took part in wargame Rocky Mountain Thunder on Idaho’s Orchard Combat Training Center (OCTC, 18 miles south of Boise), which included live fire of their HiMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket System). Video interview via Sergeant Rebecca Watkins:

I edited together from videos via Sergeant Shadica T. Price (recorded between 22 & 24 March) of day & night live-fire:

Rocky Mountain Thunder also included base defense training. I edited together from video via Sergeant Shadica T. Price:

Also in March, the Idaho Army National Guard’s 1-183rd Assault Helicopter Battalion conducted joint sling-load training with the 17th Field Artillery Brigade (Joint Base Lewis-McChord).

In April 2025, Montana Army National Guard’s 1-189th General Support Aviation Battalion conducted M240 machinegun qualifications/Helicopter Aerial Gunnery (HAG) on Idaho’s OCTC (Orchard Combat Training Center, 18 miles south of Boise).

From 04-09 of May, Idaho’s OCTC hosted the Region-6 Best Warrior Competition.

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.

Montana Army National Guard’s video report (recorded 16MAY2025 on the Limestone Hills Training Facility, released 17MAY2025):

The new upgraded Challenger is called the Challenger-3.
