*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, World* Browning’s machine guns worked on the recoil-operating principle. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Just like its ancestor the M4 Sherman, today’s M1A2 Abrams main battle tank has an M2 .50 caliber at the commander’s station. The M2 gives the tank commander a weapon with excellent anti-personnel and anti-vehicle capability, including the ability to penetrate light armor One of the most important weapons in the U.S. military arsenal is also one of the very oldest. The M2 heavy machine gun, developed by small arms wizard John Browning, has equip...

*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* Thousands of pack animals and cavalry horses in WWII labored in the German Army, and many were killed in combat or slaughtered by starving soldiers. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Horsemanship was taught at SS academies.

Of these, 435,000 horses were captured from the USSR, France, and Poland. Additional horses were purchased from Hungary, Romania, Czechoslovakia,...
The Seawolf Submarine Was Built to Best Russia’s Akula-Class
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 4 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * The Seawolf-class submarines were envisioned as the best submarines ever built. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Seawolf-class submarines are outstanding submarines, but the Cold War mindset at the time of development accepted high performance and consequently high costs to meet a high-level threat. The post–Cold War Virginia class forced the Navy to reign in costs while still producing a progressively better submarine. The Seawolf-class submarines were envisioned as the best submarines ever built. Designed to succeed the Los Angeles–class att...

In youth we are looking forward to things that are to come; in old age, we are looking backwards to things that are gone past; in manhood, although we appear indeed to be more occupied in things that are present, yet even that is too often absorbed in vague determinations to be vastly happy on some future day, when we have time.” - Charles Caleb Colton, “Lacon” ○ “The problem is, you believe you have time.” - Buddha ○ *Hans Zimmer, "Time"* Full screen recommended.

In a year already fraught with controversy, it's aposite to dredge up something of a wedge issue: *Super Mario Brothers 2* for the trusty Nintendo Entertainment System.

Not only is there an aura blazing around it, fizzing with the props for single-handedly reversing the fortunes of video gaming in the United States, its much beloved status, its synony...
