Life Behind the Lines in America’s New Culture War

Life Behind the Lines in America’s New Culture War - Free Range International This morning I saw an X from Tucker Carlson about an interview with my good friend Michael Yon. The first sentence stated "America is being invaded and destroyed with the help of our leaders". That sounded ominous and with Michael being a friend I went to the Tucker website to watch the interview. O...

It is not possible to hate the media as much as the media hates you.

This is unacceptable

The Wrath Bearing Tree published one of my short stories for Christmas - what a treat!

New Fiction by Tim Lynch: "The Skipper" - Wrath-Bearing Tree It was a typical Thursday night at the Taj Tiki Bar, tucked away off the Jalalabad – Kabul road in the hamlet of Bagrami just outside of the Jbad city limits. The Tiki Bar at the Taj had been established by a UN road building crew from Australia in 2003 and was the only bar […]

This weeks show was not optimistic about the future. Inshallah we will have something positive to talk about soon.

Amphibious invasions and post combat mental health may not seem to go together but that's what this weeks show is about...pretty good one too.

This week's show, in recognition of national su***de prevention day and talked at length on su***de. A topic few of us ever talk about and I think we acquitted ourselves well on this dangerously emotional subject. I think more of us need to get in on the conversation.

An excellent discussion of E. B. Sledge and the Marine Corps where not one of us admitted to any felonies, but all of us still had great stories.

We talked leadership this week - Jeff told what may be his best sea story yet and Will talked about a mission they were given while sitting off the coast of Liberia which was beyond stupid. His battalion commander backed him up the chain telling the Army general in Germany he had a better plan. They went in the next day and rescued over 2000 people with firing a shot. But it took serious balls to tell a general he didn't know and have never met that his plan was stupid.
