“World Affairs Dominos.” You will NOT get this kind of Intel from YOUR Social Media….Start paying close attention. Decision Points on the horizon. BLUF: The movements of Russia and China are elevated acts of aggression, and very concerning. (Are they coordinated? Certainly, NOT coincidence.) Russia continues to move levers of controls and influence. Exercising more/new in their regional assets supporting Ukraine. Ref. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/ukraine-russia-war-latest-news-putin-b2528144.html NOTE: AM/FM is still a strategic intel tool, and an effective messaging platform to those in the middle of the struggle…Use it to inform yourself. This Rock Station in Belgorod has been pushing English updates. Listen HERE: https://radio.garden/listen/radiogora/45BGsV0D ***China leverages US sanctions to bolster operational dominance and seeks to weaken Taiwans tactical capabilities*** Close contacts in Taiwan suggest that Chinese are positioning to leverage the Chaos. Don’t wait until you feel the effects to understand the National Security concerns. We the people have a responsibility to serve and protect our Allies. This is NOT hyperbole,…the literal “writing on the wall” should cause you to align with national/military priorities. And, be prepared to support a national course of action, if needed. Whether diplomatic or military. Is our ability to execute diplomacy in these regions intact?

Pay attention, please.

Military Times Early Bird Brief 28 March 24: Russia, Iran military partnership rears its head with drones in Ukraine

Happy Monday, and no I don't expect you to be working today! Just needed to get this out. This is one of the most impactful open source videos (Mike "Garand Thumb" Jones) that gives the current situation of drone warfare in Ukraine and how quickly the world of strategy and tactics is evolving, faster than any other period in history. Key points: -Current uses of drones (future ACFT will only enhance/scale these missions) -Noise signature of different drones = different threats and responses -Counter drone tactics -Non-western tactics for mass infantry and escalation -The old is new again with trench warfare but with new technology -What is cutting edge now will be accepted doctrine in 2-5 years, faster if conflict breaks out -Mines on the battlefield/cluster munitions -Use of smoke to break contact -Frag! Our thinking will have to be innovative and adaptive to win in any near peer engagement, this is not the warfare of Global War On Terror! If we stay rooted in the thinking of today's problems and not on the missions/challenges we will face in the future we will loose...and yes that is a possibility... https://youtu.be/Tge7YMi4gJs?si=i6iy9HJGSUFhgpOV #America #Veteran #Patriot #Ukraine #Tactics
