USNI News: Adm. Foggo Warns of Russian Submarines Challenging U.S. Defenses

The head of naval forces in Europe warned that Russia is preparing an underwater battlespace in the Northern Atlantic and that U.S. naval presence is more important now than any time since the fall of the Soviet Union.

Adm. James Foggo said in the second episode of his “On the Horizon” podcast that Russia’s national security policy seems to be to challenge the U.S. and its allies, and the U.S. must do all it can to ensure a rules-based international order remains in the waters in and around Europe.

"Top US admiral warns of Russian submarine threat"

Time to transfer more money from needed social budgets to the military. In the near future you will get on the list if they see you even looking left.

When I was Vet, about 40 years old, I met my third wife when I worked sometimes on a reservation. Her father told me she had been given the honorary title of Princess 5 Ponies. A year into our marriage I learned that it meant she was a nag, nag, nag, nag, nag.

Someone on this site, I don't remember the name they go by, but it is someone who could easily be named Princess bitázdínóozgis, reminds me of her.
