"I was a movieholic," admitted Tucker, whose first deployment was under the tactical, speed-infused command of future Commandant of the Marine Corps, Lt. Col. Al Gray, operating from the amphibious warship, USS Inchon.

The most predictable beaches have either a rocky bottom, often confined by the presence of cliffs, or a coral reef which changes its shape very slowly. Sand beaches are the least consistent; their surf may be changing constantly. In the summer, the lighter, thinner waves may build up these beaches at the rate of several feet a day as the grains of sand are lifted from the bottom to be deposited by the waves in a new place. The heavy surf in winter holds the sand up much longer, and tearing down...

a- My impression from watching a lot of videos of cops that BLM complains about is that the quality of cops has gone up a lot over my lifetime. Here’s an objective metric: what percentage of bullets fired by cops strike the target vs. missing or hitting some bystander? On the campaign trail last year, Joe Biden called for cops to shoot unarmed attackers with a knife only in the leg. On the cowboy TV shows that Joe watched in the 1950s, the hero was always shooting the gun out of the hand of t...

MY last article (M Star March 20-21) described the World Youth Festival that I went to in Budapest in 1949. In October I left my comfortable but expensive boarding house in Bristol, rented a room from a party member, and fended for myself.  I couldn’t cook, so I had most of my meals at the students’ union. My breakfast consisted of a single Mars bar.  That winter I developed bronchitis, and my mother came to look after me, cooking shepherd’s pie, which has remained  one of my favourite...

Chun/Los Angeles Times via Getty Images But in 2020, after George Floyd died at the hands of police and wave of protests against police brutality spread across the US, police drove their vans into crowds of protesters, shot paint canisters at people standing on their own porches, fired rubber bullets at reporters and arrested other reporters live on television, and pulled down protesters’ masks to pepper spray them in the face in the midst of a respiratory pandemic.

A few days after we talked with him, the recruiter drove me the roughly 100 miles down to Bakersfield to the Military Enrollment Processing Station (MEPS).  In Bakersfield, they gave me a full physical, followed by a placement test, similar to an SAT, then sat me down at a desk with Petty Officer Rosales. His name wasn’t really Rosales; I do...
