OK state senator proposes ‘MAGA’ license plate

“The new plates will mean a yearly $35 fee. Dahm said none of the money will support Trump. Instead, $20 of the fee will go to two local veteran groups.”

Do the folks who raise money to support veterans also advocate for phasing out undeclared/unwon wars that never end?

Okla. National Guard could get incentives for recruiting, retention

“The Oklahoma Army National Guard has about 6,400 enlistees. The Air National Guard has about 2,000.”

“Of those, the Army National Guard has about 225 soldiers currently mobilized, military officials said. About 100 of those are already in Kuwait. The rest are expected to deploy to Kuwait next month.”

“The Air National Guard has about 85 soldiers deployed to the Middle East and around 130 preparing to deploy, military officials said.”

Sign up to serve the people of Oklahoma, then head for the Middle East. Can’t blame people for questioning this scenario.

Unlike active duty folks, these guys need to have a regular job and a place to live back home when not helping DOD squander credibility in distant lands.

Any members of the press available to show up and ask why the people of Oklahoma need services in the Middle East, absent any military emergency, national emergency, draft, or declaration of war?

B-2 stealth bomber to fly over NFL playoff game – here are photos of the legendary plane

“Continuing a lasting relationship with our community partners, the Kansas City Chiefs organization, the B-2 will kick off the game with a demonstration of precision air power,” Whiteman Air Force Base said in a press statement to American Military News.

“The B-2 proved its effectiveness during military operations in Kosovo in 1999. The bomber reportedly destroyed 33 percent of all Serbian targets in the first eight weeks of NATO involvement in the country and managed to carry out its bombing runs by flying nonstop from Missouri to Kosovo and back.”

412th Test Wing to conduct flyover before NFC championship game

“A significant portion of the general population doesn’t understand Aerial Refueling, or even know that it exists. Demonstrating a refueling formation, even if the aircraft aren’t actually touching, will hopefully help all the spectators, both in the stadium and the national TV audience, understand a capability of the US Air Force that greatly increases our combat effectiveness and lethality,” said Maj. Jacob Lambach, 418th FLTS, who will be one of the KC-135 pilots for the flyover.

The militarized theme of the license plate at the top of the page and pregame military flyovers remind us that the Dept. of Defense was nowhere to be found on 911.

We haven’t won a war since.

Did the advantage of US air power allow the undeclared wars in Iraq or Afghanistan to be prevented won or shut down?
