THAAD Missile Defence – Hammer of kinetic anti-nuclear awesomeness

THAAD is the best thing we’ve got going for us.   Three layers of missile defense and a kinetic energy hammer that wails on it’s target.  I really like the name of this weapon.  Good choice!

I like when he says:  ‘THAAD is on hunt, but will he kill his prey?  Oh there it is.  He Nailed it!”

Fake D-Day Paratrooper scheduled to receive French ‘Legion of Honor’ award

Just be honest Howie.  We respect you for your service.  But don't make stuff up.

Just be honest Howie. We respect you for your service. But don't dishonor dead of the 82nd.

84 year old Howard Manoian has been parading around as an 82nd Airborne paratrooper for decades and telling heroic stories and gallant tales of battle behind enemy lines.   But little does the public know, it may  be a complete fabrication!   According to the Boston Herald, the National Archives show that old Howie was in a Chemical unit and worked at a supply dump.  As do his records at the bottom of our post.  And numerous reports and payroll listings show him as being the 33rd Chemical Decon Company and never with the 82nd Airborne. In today’s war, it’s like  a  Iraq vet that served as an admin clerk, but then came home and claimed to be a Green Beret! The French don’t seem to mind much, but I’m sure that the 82nd Paratroopers that spilled their blood on foreign soil might.

Alexis Berthier of the French Consulate in Boston said, “Mr. Manoian will receive the Legion of Honor based on the confirmed and established elements of his service, not on the contested ones.  It is established that Mr. Manoian participated in the Normandy campaign and was wounded in action on French soil.”

“Wounded on French Soil”   According to records, he broke a finger……….

Why fake the funk sir? You get props just for being part of the invasion!

You don't need to fake funk sir? You get hero cred just for being part of the war!

Thanks once again Troops

Another shining example of Censorship. Iran blocks the use of Facebook ahead of elections. I don’t really understand the point of having an election if you’re going stop the public from expressing their views and joining together.  Just have a good old fashioned dictatorship and call it what it is.  Why beat around the bush.

CNN Link: Iran blocks Facebook.

Amininaminiaanininanajad (Automatic 3 star)……..you’re a Doodie pants.

Yeah, we know, it sucks to be Iranian right now.  Be patient.

The photograph of Kasal, taken by photographer Lucian Read — blood soaked and still holding his pistol and K-Bar knife — being helped from the building by fellow Marines, has become one of the iconic pictures of the war.
