Excalibur has resurfaced. It is the formerly annual fighter competition that was killed off after the end of the Cold War. The meet pits USAFE fighter pilots against RAF compatriots, and it roared to life for three days last week.
U.S. Southern Command recently announced its first lethal strike on a suspected narco-trafficking vessel in two months, and the first under a newly formed permanent counter-cartel task force. The U.S. is also reportedly planning to transfer MQ-9 drones to Colombia to bolster its counter-cartel efforts.
