'We're Fed Up With It': Survivors of the USS Liberty Look for Answers.

On June 8, 2005 the USS Liberty Veterans Association submitted A Report of War Crimes Committed Against the USS Liberty, June 8, 1967 to the Department of Defense in accordance with the DoD Law of War Program.
[.]
The Department of Defense has unilaterally waived its obligation under the Department of Defense Law of War Program by refusing to investigate the allegations contained in the War Crimes Report.  The Department of Defense has also refused to provide a speaker to address the crew of the USS Liberty and explain their actions with regard to the War Crimes Report.

Navy Confirms Using Drag Queen Influencer as a ‘Digital Ambassador’ to Attract Recruits.

I Meme Therefore I Am LINK

"China and Russia are laughing their asses off right now."

Breitbart: Navy Confirms Using Drag Queen Influencer as a ‘Digital Ambassador’ to Attract Recruits.

The U.S. Navy confirmed to Breitbart News on Wednesday that it used a “drag queen influencer” as one of its “digital ambassadors” to attempt to recruit “a wide range of potential candidates.”

The influencer is 24-year-old active-duty U.S. Navy Yeoman 2nd Class Joshua Kelley, whose stage name is “Harpy Daniels.”

Navy takes out Iranian drone with Marine-jamming Jeep.

They had to love doing this. BadAss Toys are the best!

C4ISRNET: Marine jamming jeep sends unknown drone to the deep.

... the amphibious ship USS Boxer was in international waters conducting a planned inbound transit of the Strait of Hormuz,” reads the statement from the Chief Pentagon Spokesperson Jonathan Hoffman. “A fixed wing unmanned aerial system (UAS) approached Boxer and closed within a threatening range. The ship took defensive action against the UAS to ensure the safety of the ship and its crew”

The Pentagon’s statement differs in language from the wording used by President Trump, who claimed that “the drone was immediately destroyed” after receiving multiple calls to stand down. According to CNN, US defense officials claim that the drone was disabled not by bullets or missiles (“kinetics,” in the jargon) but by jamming.

Specifically, it was almost certainly jamming via MRZR LMADIS, or a Polaris MRZR vehicle sporting a Light Marine Air Defense Integrated System. While a Corps official said as early as May 2019 that the deployment of the system to the Middle East was winding down, observers online noted that a MRZR LMADIS system was visible on the deck of the USS Boxer for its transit through the Strait of Hormuz in pictures uploaded earlier that day.

Watch over and protect our Troops, Lord. Say a prayer for Them tonight.
