In February, the 1st Multi-Domain Task Force long-range fires battalion, 5th Battalion, 3rd Field Artillery Regiment, deployed the Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon — or LRHW — system over 3,100 miles from Joint Base Lewis-McChord to Cape Canaveral, Florida during Thunderbolt Strike, a full rehearsal of expeditionary hypersonic launch capabilities.
The deployment exercised critical command and control linkages between U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, U.S. Strategic Command, U.S. Army Pacific, Army Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office — known as RCCTO, and 1st MDTF.

As fighting has raged in Ukraine during the last year, Russia has steadfastly maintained that it has nothing to do with the well-armed, well-organized separatists fomenting violence in the country’s east that has claimed the lives of more than 6,100. This weekend, that facade crumbled a little further when two Russian special forces soldiers were captured following a battle near Luhansk.
In a press briefing on Monday, Chief of General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Viktor Muzhenko said that Kiev now has concrete proof of direct Russian involvement in Ukraine and that they will be inviting OSCE observers to speak with the Russian soldiers. The two men were captured after participating in a reconnaissance mission near a power plant. One Ukrainian soldier was killed in the fighting that led to their capture.
A video released online claims to show one of the two captured Russian soldiers admitting to the spying mission from a hospital bed. The soldier identified as Alexander Alexandrov and said that he is a sergeant from the central Russian city of Togliatti in the “Spetsnaz” special forces controlled by Russia’s military intelligence service, the GRU.

Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid. Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. Motivation is the art of getting people to do what you want them to do because they want to do it.

🚆Train from Kherson arrived in Lviv this morning, entirely in time. Despite being hit by Russian terrorists.
This train came under fire by Russian troops at the Kherson railway station yesterday. As a result, one of the train cars caught fire. However, the train crew quickly responded by detaching the burning car from the train, boarding the passengers, and departing from the station with only a 14-minute delay 👏
The conductor Roman, injured during the Russian shelling, has already been discharged from the hospital in Kherson. His condition is stable.
After the arrival, the heroic train crew was greeted with applause by their colleagues and local residents at the Lviv railway station. Ukrainians are strong in spirit, and therefore, Russian terror cannot break them.

Abrams graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in 1982, according to an official online bio, and holds master's degrees from Central Michigan University and the Army War College.

Gen. Robert B. Abrams, commander United Nations Command, Combined Forces Command and US Forces Korea, visits the Joint Security Area, Nov. 10. Gen. Abrams toured the facility and visited with the Soldiers on site along with Gen. Park Han-ki, Republic of Korea Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.The four-star Army general who sent accused deserter Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s case to a felony-level, general court-martial will be required to testify Wednesday about accusations that he destroyed letters related to the case, a military judge has ruled.
Bergdahl’s lawyers have asked Col. Jeffery R. Nance to remove Gen. Robert Abrams, the chief of Army Forces Command, from his role as convening authority after he admitted he sent some 100 letters that he received from the public about the case to be burned.
Nance’s decision came Monday during a pre-trial hearing in which he also determined Berghdahl’s attempt to join the French Foreign Legion and his time on a weapons range prior to enlisting cannot be used in his court-martial as evidence of his pursuits of adventure.

Why it’s taking months for Western battle tanks to make it to the front lines in Ukraine
Six Leopard 2 tanks left Spain and are set to reach Ukraine in less than a week, Spanish Minister of Defense Margarita Robles said this weekend. The United States, meanwhile, will start training Ukrainian forces on its Abrams tanks next month, seeking to get them on the battlefield against Russia before the end of the summer.
But even with shipments and training underway, the fighting vehicles donated by NATO allies to Ukraine will not have an immediate impact on its war with Russia, experts warn.
Steep learning curve: Modern main battle tanks are complicated pieces of weaponry. Looking formidable and rugged on the outside, much of their effectiveness on the battlefield comes down to sophisticated electronic and computer systems at their core. Those systems find targets and train the tank’s main gun on them.
Maintaining the tanks, repairing them and supplying the parts necessary requires detailed training all the way from the crews in the vehicles to the logistics trail supporting them, hundreds or maybe thousands of miles from the front lines in eastern Ukraine.
“I would say the ability to train Ukrainian soldiers to support any tanks they are given is almost more important than the type of tank they use,” said Nicholas Drummond, a defense industry analyst specializing in land warfare and a former British Army officer.

I had an opportunity to visit the Soldiers and leaders of III Corps and Fort Hood this week for their warfighter exercise where they focused on large-scale combat operations.

Gen. Robert Abrams, commander of US Forces Korea (USFK) and the Combined Forces Command (CFC), dismissed claims recently made in some quarters that American troops might be removed from the Korean Peninsula as being completely groundless.
During a speech at the ROK-US Alliance Forum, held on Wednesday, Abrams was asked to address concerns that American troops might be withdrawn from the Korean Peninsula, considering that 9,500 American soldiers are being removed from Germany.
Abrams said that such concerns were completely baseless, remarking that the US was still committed to its alliance with South Korea and that its ties with the South were based on shared values and forged in the ravages of war. The general added that Americans were still committed to their responsibilities and to the defense of South Korea

When developing a new war plan, the United States and South Korea should consider ways to counter China’s increasingly aggressive stance in Northeast Asia, a former commander of the U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) said.
General Robert Abrams, the commander of the U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) from 2018 to 2021, said in addition to threats from North Korea, Washington and Seoul should develop new operational war plans (OPLANs) that account for military aggression by Beijing, whose presence has “significantly increased” in the region since 2010.
