Efforts to Restore World War II B-17 “Desert Rat” Bomber Underway*Peter Suciu* *Bombers, * Rome may not have been built in a day, and restoring a B-17 is something that takes time. There is no denying that the B-17 Flying Fortress played a significant role during the Second World War. Yet, a common misconception is that it was the most produced heavy bomber of the conflict. It wasn’t; in fact, that distinction rightfully goes to the B-24 Liberator. In total, 18,482 Liberators were produced during the war, while just 12,731 Flying Fortresses were built between 1936 and 1945. However, both aircraft proved to be the true workhorses of the United... read more

Egypt to Acquire Former Royal Navy Warships*Peter Suciu* *British Royal Navy, Europe* “The first sale of UK military vessels to this partner in more than 30 years—represents both an investment in a UK partner nation and an opportunity to continue supporting our industry partners who will prepare these vessels to hand over.” Throughout much of the twentieth century and into the early twenty-first century, the Royal Navy practically ran a certified “pre-owned” warship program—as many of its former vessels were sold off to other nations to remain in operation.

Psalm 15, reflections from 1938 and 2021This morning in my Magnificat (journal) reading for November 4, Psalm 15 was suggested. When I read it, immediately my thoughts turned to the recent election and all politicians and candidates, issues and levies from city council to governor all over the nation. To me it said our leaders need to honor God in order to be successful. So I turned to my favorite source on the Psalms, "Meditations in the Book of Psalms" by Erling C. Olsen which is based on his Sunday radio broadcasts during the Great Depression in the 1930s. Much to my surprise, I see I wasn't the only one who though... read more

The truth about January 6th, 2021, and the progressive left's lies about itTucker Carlson is a national treasure. He's going for the jugular on the stories he reports, he won't be held back by politically correct considerations, and he's devastating in the way he builds a logical, rational case for the truth. That's on particularly powerful display in his three-part exposé of the events of January 6th, 2021, characterized by the progressive left as a "coup attempt" or "domestic terrorism" or "far-right extremism". They were nothing of the sort. The complicity of the FBI and other agents of the "deep state" has by now been established beyond any dou... read more
