The US military has issued an apology after soldiers accidentally stormed a factory in Bulgaria that produces processing machinery for olive oil during a training exercise last month.

US soldiers of the 173rd Airborne Brigade had been practicing for days how to seize and secure the Cheshnegirovo decommissioned airfield in Bulgaria, training that included clearing bunkers across the airfield, according to a statement from the US Army Europe and Africa released Tuesday. During an exercise on May 11, the soldiers cleared a building next to the airfield that “they believed was part of the training area, but that was occupied by Bulgarian civilians operating a private business.” No weapons were fired, the US military also said.  Continue reading “US troops accidentally storm olive oil factory in Bulgaria”

Last month, The War Zone reported on a bizarre drone encounter that occurred in the skies above Tucson, Arizona. According to reports, on the evening of February 9, 2021 around 10:30 PM local time, a helicopter belonging to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, or CBP, encountered what has been described by KOLD’s Dan Marries, who interviewed an FBI agent assigned to the case, as a “highly modified drone” in controlled airspace. Another helicopter operated by the Tucson Police Department’s Air Support Unit was called in to help track and potentially identify the drone alongside the one from CBP, but the drone was able to evade them both and remain unidentified. Shortly after the incident was disclosed, the FBI released a statement asking for help from the public regarding any information related to the encounter.  Continue reading “New Details Emerge On The “Highly Modified Drone” That Outran Police Helicopters Over Tucson”

WASHINGTON — The Biden administration on Tuesday suspended oil and gas leases in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, reversing a drilling program approved by the Trump administration and reviving a political fight over a remote region that is home to polar bears and other wildlife — and a rich reserve of oil.

The order by Interior Secretary Deb Haaland follows a temporary moratorium on oil and gas lease activities imposed by President Joe Biden on his first day in office. Biden’s Jan. 20 executive order suggested a new environmental review was needed to address possible legal flaws in a drilling program approved by the Trump administration under a 2017 law enacted by Congress.

Brewer Anheuser-Busch announced on Wednesday that it is teaming up with the White House to offer its ‘biggest beer giveaway ever’ if 70 percent of American adults have had at least one vaccine by July 4 but the offer has a catch: only 200,000 people will reap the benefits of free booze.

The free beer is part of a ‘month of action’ that President Joe Biden is announcing to get more shots into arms before the July 4 holiday – which he has previously hoped would be the celebration of the ‘independence from COVID’.

There will be no broadcast of The Word From the Trenches again today.

Laura and her sisters made the final arrangements for her mom yesterday.

This morning, I received a call informing me that my sister’s son died of a heart attack last night at the age of 36. He had taken the Covid shot recently in order to keep his job, but I’m sure that had nothing to do with it. These mother f-kers have killed my family now.

My sister is in South Carolina and her son lived in Texas, so me and my siblings have a lot to work out.

I’ll be back as soon as I can.

Best thing I’ve seen in weeks.  Kudos to dad and daughter.

“Daddy teaches you, you can be anything in this world that you want to be, right, don’t Daddy teach you that?” the dad says. “Yeah, and it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white or any color.” “Doesn’t matter if you’re black, white, brown, yellow,” the dad says. “And how we treat people is based on who they are, and not what color they are.” His daughter interrupts him with, “And if they’re nice,” she says. “And smart.” “This is how children think right here.
