    Commercial imaging companies solved the data access problem; now they must tackle reliability. – Clone

    Defending the Edge: Proven Air Defense for the Modern Fight

    From Ukraine to Iran, recent conflicts have underscored how profoundly low-cost, proliferated and adaptable aerial threats are reshaping the modern battlefield. Small drones and one-way attack systems are compressing decision timelines, stressing traditional defenses and exposing…

  • Why “set it and forget it” does not work for Life Insurance

    Why “set it and forget it” does not work for Life Insurance

    USAA Life Insurance Company and USAA Life Insurance Company of New York Many service members are automatically enrolled in Servicemembers’ Group Life Insurance (SGLI) and then rarely think about it again. Early in a career, that may be understandable. A young single service member with no dependents, no mortgage, and limited financial obligations may be…

  • THE EDGE IS THE NEW HIGH GROUND Own the Edge ™

    THE EDGE IS THE NEW HIGH GROUND Own the Edge ™

    For centuries, military doctrine held a simple truth: seize the high ground and you command the battle. Elevation delivered observation, engagement advantage, and defensive strength. Today, that advantage has shifted. The high ground is no longer a hilltop. It is the forward edge of the battlespace, where sensing, decision, and effects converge. The force that owns the edge owns the fight. Recent conflicts have made this clear. In Ukraine, fixed…

  • America needs more service

    America needs more service

    America is about to turn 250. But for many Americans, this seems like a strange time for a birthday party. Last year, Gallup found that just 58% of Americans say they are “extremely” or “very” proud to be American, near a historic low. Among Americans aged 18-34, only 18% say they are “extremely proud” to be American. Numbers like this are not exactly grounds for celebration. America’s future depends, in…

  • When Memorial Day is Every Day

    When Memorial Day is Every Day

    On Memorial Day, our nation pauses to honor the brave Americans who served and gave their lives in defense of our freedom. We gather at parades, place flags at gravesites, and visit veterans and national cemeteries in solemn remembrance of their sacrifice. For many Americans, this sacred act of remembrance lasts a single day. But for the surviving families of our fallen heroes, every day is Memorial Day. Every sunrise…

    How to Reconnect With Your Spouse After Deployment

    Homecoming is rarely what you imagine it will be. At first, homecoming can feel like something out of a movie, marked by relief and the sense of your family being whole again. But within days, that clarity often gives way to something more complicated. The person standing in the kitchen feels familiar but different at the same time. The life you built during the months apart doesn’t settle back into…

    Gold star sister reflects on time at Dover Fisher House

    In 2020, Christina Phaneuf and her family got one of the worst calls that a military family can receive. Her brother, Air Force Capt. Ryan Phaneuf, had died in a crash. Her family was invited to Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, to meet Ryan’s remains as he returned to U.S. soil. “My brother was serving out in Afghanistan,” Christina said, “and we found out that his plane went down, and…

  • Defending the Heartland: The Multi‑Domain Protection Architecture of Tomorrow

    Defending the Heartland: The Multi‑Domain Protection Architecture of Tomorrow

    The threats facing the United States have never been more complex, more layered, or more time critical. Ballistic missiles, hypersonic glide vehicles, cruise missiles, cyber intrusions, and one way attack drones now move across physical and digital domains with unprecedented fluidity. Increasingly, the most decisive actions begin in space, a domain that is no longer a sanctuary but a frontline of competition. These threats exploit seams in doctrine and technology.…

    Honoring Gold Star Children, Investing in Their Future

    April is the Month of the Military Child, a time to recognize the strength, resilience, and sacrifice of the youngest members of our military community. Among them are Gold Star children—those who have lost a parent in the line of duty—whose lives are forever shaped by service and sacrifice. For students like Fallen Patriots scholar Ethan Carbajal, that sacrifice is both deeply personal and profoundly motivating. The surviving son of…

    Hero Miles supports family in time of crisis

    Air Force Maj. Dan Campbell and his wife Heather experienced many uncertainties when their 9-year-old son, Isaiah, was diagnosed with a subglottic stenosis, or narrowing of the airway which would require a major surgery. Stationed in remote Alaska, they wondered how to keep the family together for the nearly 2,500-mile journey for his medical care. “The only thing that is constant for us is us,” Heather said. “Our location changes,…

  • You can get better through Check-In

    You can get better through Check-In

    A few years ago, President George W. Bush asked the Bush Institute’s team a simple question about its work on helping veterans experiencing mental or brain health challenges: “How do we know if our veterans are getting better?” It was a fair question. And at the time, we had a fair answer: we trust our clinical partners. Every organization we had brought into the Veteran Wellness Alliance (VWA) through Check-In,…

    Vietnam Vet Cares for Wife and Wartime Nurse

    Ken MacMillan first met Judy while being treated for injuries sustained during the Vietnam War. Judy was a nurse at the hospital, and despite Ken’s repeated attempts to strike up a conversation, she kept their interactions strictly professional. “I was in the hospital as I met her before we even talked to one another. I kept going back and trying to talk to her.” It was not until two months…

  • Life Insurance for the Veteran Entrepreneur

    Life Insurance for the Veteran Entrepreneur

    Leaving the military to build a business takes grit, creativity, and the kind of resilience most Americans never see. It also brings real financial risk. For many veteran entrepreneurs, life insurance becomes an important tool that helps protect both their families and the business they’re working hard to build. That protection matters. Veteran-owned businesses contribute hundreds of billions to the U.S. economy, but they’re often launched during major life transitions—moving…

    Warrior Spirit Ranch Expands a New Model for Veteran Healing

    When veterans seek mental health support, timing and approach can determine whether they stay engaged or walk away. Across much of the country, wait times stretch weeks or longer, and many care models require veterans to relive traumatic experiences in order to heal. When care is finally available, it leaves many veterans feeling worse and still searching for solutions. Operation Warrior Resolution (OWR), a Florida-based nonprofit serving military veterans and…

    Fisher House guest is now scholarship recipient at University of Iowa

    The big move to college from high school is intimidating for anyone, but Anyia Woods had a surprising reminder of past comfort when she saw that one of her scholarship applications, the one to the Scholarships for Military Children Program, was from Fisher House. That’s because Anyia, who is studying neuroscience, previously stayed at Fisher Houses in Virginia when her mother was sick as a member of the Navy. “I’m…

    Start the Year With Purpose: Support Children of Fallen Patriots

    Every new year invites reflection. We set resolutions to be better—to live with more purpose, generosity, and impact. While many resolutions fade by February, some choices have the power to change lives for years to come. Supporting the children of America’s fallen service members is one of those choices. When a member of the U.S. military dies in the line of duty, their sacrifice leaves behind more than a legacy…
