MoreNEWINGTON, N.H. – On the factory floor at gun maker Sig Sauer’s headquarters, giant shipping pallets of the brand-new M8 Next Generation Squad Weapon rifle sit shrink-wrapped on shelves, ready for dispatch to soldiers.Fielding of the M8 carbine, which appears set to replace Sig Sauer’s M7 as the Army’s standard rifle less than three years after the M7’s initial fielding began, will begin in December with some units at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, company executives confirmed to Military Times Monday. The NGSW new weapons rollout also includes Sig’s M250 machine gun, which will replace the aging M249 Squad Automatic Weapon and is expected to reach troops in the first half of next year, said Dave Buehler, the company’s vice president of manufacturing.Both weapons share an ammunition caliber: the 6.8×51mm Common Cartridge developed by Sig Sauer with a hybrid design intended to withstand high chamber pressure. The M7 stumbled out of the gate, generating complaints from soldiers about its unwieldy weight and length and undue wear they said the high-pressure rounds were putting on components, including barrels and suppressors. While Sig Sauer pushed back at the time on a number of the most strident complaints, the company is now casting the…
Editor’s Note: This article describing the citizen first responder is presented for discussion purposes. Know and follow your jurisdiction’s laws regarding self-defense, and ensure that anyone rendering aid is qualified to do so. Seek competent training from qualified instructors.A common definition of a first responder is a person who has specialized training and is among the first to arrive and deal with an emergency. Frequently counted in this group are law enforcement, fire rescue, and emergency medical services personnel. A broader accounting could include medical staff, pilots, the military, and public works personnel. A citizen first responder should be someone who has an increased level of preparedness and training when compared to a non-trained “Good Samaritan.”But the real distinction between a first responder and a Good Samaritan is the level of preparedness and training. While any person can be a helpful volunteer in a dangerous situation, a true first responder must have attributes that can more assuredly lead to a successful outcome.Right off the bat, obviously, you should avoid danger and conflict whenever possible. Unless it’s an unavoidable threat, your best course of action is always to avoid conflict whenever possible.But what about if you are truly facing a deadly…

The Army has set a date and location for the execution of Nidal Malik Hasan, a former Army officer and psychiatrist who killed 13 people and injured 32 others during a mass shooting at Fort Hood, Texas, in 2009. “The execution of Nidal Hasan by firing squad will take place at Fort Hood, Texas, on Thursday, December 3rd, 2026, at 1 p.m. CT.,” acting Army Secretary Adam Telle announced, confirming that the location would return Hasan to the site of the murders. A memo Telle shared on X stated that President Donald Trump approved the execution order on Oct. 2. “The execution officer will be the Commandant, United States Disciplinary Barracks,” the memo states. Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell first announced the execution order on Monday, stating, “Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has recommended — and President Donald J. Trump has approved — death by U.S. Army firing squad for convicted terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan, the jihadist who opened fire on unarmed American soldiers at Fort Hood in 2009. “He killed 13 people and wounded 32 others while shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ during the attack,” Parnell wrote.

An order to ground hundreds of the Army’s AH-64E Apache attack helicopters is likely to affect every squadron and is expected to be in place for months as the service conducts a global inspection, an official told Military Times Tuesday.The “immediate, temporary pause in flight operations,” announced Oct. 2, affects the latest variant of the Apache and is specific to helicopters equipped with Improved Drive System transmissions.“This action follows ongoing Army technical and airworthiness assessments of the Improved Drive System transmission, including information developed through prior Safety of Flight actions, inspection results, maintenance reporting, and ongoing engineering analysis,” officials said in the announcement.An Army official told Military Times that about 400 of the Army’s roughly 700 Apaches are affected, and aircraft from every active-duty and National Guard Apache unit are included in the grounding.The move follows a brief grounding of the entire Apache fleet in August after an AH-64 from Fort Hood, Texas, crashed in a field Aug. 12, killing both pilots. Defense One reported in May that an Army investigation had found that the AH-64E’s improved drive system main transmissions “can experience an internal failure resulting in loss of accessory gearbox drive, which can result in loss of tail…

MoreChicago Sky’s DiJonai Carrington finally responded to those criticizing her for posting “WHITE PRIVILEGE @indianafever” after being ejected for clotheslining Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham.But her response still doesn’t explain why she chose those specific words to post on her Threads account, presumably from the locker room, following her ejection during Saturday’s loss to the Fever.Carrington quote tweeted a retort to ex-NFL player and sports personality Emmanuel Acho, who said on his “Speakeasy” show that Carrington could not call her foul on Cunningham “White privilege.” “I’ve never once claimed that the assessment of the foul was white privilege (that was your assumption),” Carrington’s reply to Acho read on X. “Try exercising your critical thinking skills, I know you studied psych.”Furthermore, I’m the LAST thing from ignorant or asinine when it comes to speaking on ‘white privilege,’ do ya research on that one. I actually went to school, one of the top universities might I add, to educate myself on this exact subject,” Carrington, who attended Stanford for four years before grad-transferring to Baylor, added. “I would never use that term as a rhetorical weapon knowing the historical and social weight it holds without having the proper evidence to substantiate it.”FORMER…
A U.S. Navy warship that most recently deployed in support of military operations in Iran returned to its Florida homeport on Sunday.The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Thomas Hudner arrived at Naval Station Mayport along with almost 300 sailors after a nearly nine-month deployment to the U.S. 4th, 5th and 6th Fleet areas of operations.“Over the past almost nine months, this crew has demonstrated exceptional resilience and tactical proficiency across three different fleets,” said Cmdr. David Cook, commanding officer of the Hudner. “Their dedication is unmatched, and we are absolutely thrilled to be back in Mayport to reunite with the families and loved ones whose unwavering support made our success possible.”Hudner departed Mayport for a scheduled deployment on Dec. 1, 2025, and made its way to the Caribbean Sea, where it provided support to Operation Southern Spear, a campaign the U.S. launched in September 2025 on the premise of reducing the flow of illegal drugs into the country.As part of the efforts, the U.S. has launched 66 military strikes against alleged drug-carrying vessels, killing at least 196 people. The campaign has been divisive, with senators and legal experts questioning the legality of the strikes.Hudner then transited to the 6th Fleet…

Joint Base Charleston is now officially Joint Base Lindsey Graham, honoring the late senator from South Carolina who served for decades in the U.S. Air Force.The Pentagon announced late last month that the base, located in North Charleston, South Carolina, would be renamed after Republican Senator Lindsey Graham. The renaming took place Monday with a ceremony attended by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, as well as state and local officials.A late July memo, signed by Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink, directed staff to begin working with Air Mobility Command and Joint Base Charleston to rename the base, attributing the honor to Graham’s “decades of distinguished service to the United States Congress and the United States Air Force.”Graham spent 33 years in the Air Force as an active-duty staff judge advocate, a South Carolina Air National Guard officer and a senior lawyer in the Air Force Reserve. He died unexpectedly from an aortic dissection at the age of 71 in mid-July.Graham was elected to the House of Representatives in 1994 and the Senate in 2002.Graham was a member of the Senate Budget Committee, leading efforts to further military funding. Before his death, he secured $212…

In the midst of the MLB season, when off days are few and far between, players simply have to take what the schedule gives them when it comes to getting out on the golf course. For the Los Angeles Angels, one of those days happened to be August 3, MLB trade deadline day, and with the team on the East Coast, it was as good an opportunity as any to get out to Mike Trout’s private club, Trout National.With the Angels owning a record of 43-69 at the deadline and the front office going full-on sell mode, what was meant to be a stress-free day on the links turned into a complete and total mess.The Tiger Woods-designed Trout National is a private club with a budget of $100 million located in the 12-time All-Star’s hometown of Vineland, New Jersey. The club is the definition of private, with only a select number of golfers stepping foot on the property; therefore, it’s fair to assume the dozen teammates Trout welcomed to play were looking forward to the experience.
