The Magnitsky List was not something that was known to most people. The list was thrust back into the limelight when the US drew up the first of the sanctions against Russia for their involvement/backing the Donbass rebels. What was then a thinly veiled attempt to weaponize a piece of legislation in the new cold…
The title of this post is rather trite in my opinion. The list of actual betrayals that veterans have sustained is as long and as storied as this country’s history. Whether it’s the violent crushing of the Bonus Army, lack of body armour for forward deployed troops, or the “wait till they die” attitude that…

I had the fortune and ability to attend this year’s AUSA conference in Washington DC. This was admittedly my first large defense industry conference. I was unfortunately only able to attend the last two days, both of which were disrupted by job obligations but I was able to take some photographs, bring back some literature…
Just a simple 10% off code.
Clickbait title? You bet. The statement may seem outlandish, but it’s probably not. I read an article from LA Times that I felt was worth sharing.
