How much could a Marine Corps fighter cost? That was probably one of the questions running through 21-year-old Lance Cpl.

Robbie, a child who has suffered abuse and neglect and spent years in foster care, can understand how older dogs from asylum centres feel. The longer a child lives in foster care, the harder it is to get them adopted. The same is true for older dogs from asylum centres. Most foster parents want children or puppies, but everyone deserves a loving family. So when Robbie was adopted by Maria Henry Gay and her husband, the family decided they would only take in older dogs. Even if they can’t spend many more years with the dogs. They still give…

Sure, we all think our dogs are the cutest things in the world, but their personality and their love for us has more to do with it than anything else. Unfortunately,…

Compilation of fighter jet accidents aboard various aircraft carriers. (Defense Flash News/YouTube) Landing a fighter jet on an aircraft carrier is no easy task. Pilots train for years in order to be able to get a multi-million dollar, Mach 2-capable aircraft to land on a runway just a few hundred feet long – on a moving ship cruising in the middle of the open ocean, no less. Unfortunately, not every landing goes as planned. Sometimes, pilot error, poor weather conditions, or other unforeseen circumstances can turn a routine procedure into a dangerous or even deadly situation. From planes skidding off…
