Mine warfare remains one of the most under-discussed yet potentially decisive dimensions of a cross-Strait conflict scenario. Excited for you all to check out the latest for The Monitor, where I examine Taiwan’s offensive minelaying and mine countermeasures posture:
Taiwan Security Monitor (台灣安全觀測站)@TaiwanMonitor

New from TSM: Taiwan has invested in new minelayers, but its broader mine warfare posture still shows a significant gap between concept and wartime capability, particularly in a contested Taiwan Strait. The latest article in The Monitor by TSM’s Assistant Director @ethandconnell examines Taiwan’s offensive minelaying capacity, aging mine countermeasures fleet, and the operational constraints that could limit both in a cross-Strait conflict. Read it here: tsm.schar.gmu.edu/taiwans-mine-w…

My latest on the issues plaguing military families' health care. The Defense Health Agency and its contractors say the challenges in processing medical claims was a glitch that's been fixed, but many people I talked to showed that's not the case at all.

Doing this right as the Navy’s biggest conference ends, after Phelan spent the last three days laying out the Navy’s priorities to industry and media, and amid Phelan meeting with lawmakers on the budget, is some wild timing:

The crime here to me is profiting from the scheme; the scheme itself highlights the absurd complexity and hypocrisy of immigration law wsj.com/us-news/louisi…

Damn straight, and thanks for your 20 years. I always ask if people did Iraq or Afgh. I always feel like a jerk when they have to explain that, not by choice, they didn't.

In 2004 I joined VFA-137 on a Westpac deployment. The senior LT’s had all participated in the opening of OIF during the squadron’s previous deployment. My FRS classmates went to squadrons that participated in OIF and OEF. I deployed for another Westpac in 2007.

Let us reject the logic of violence and war, and embrace peace founded on love and justice—an unarmed peace, not based on fear, threats or weapons. This peace is disarming, because it is capable of resolving conflicts, opening hearts, and generating trust, empathy, and hope. I strongly reiterate: The world thirsts for #Peace! Enough of war and all the pain it causes through death, destruction, and exile! #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon
