"On Wednesday, a temporary detachment of four US Navy EA-18G Growlers deployed to the Philippines. According to Pacific Command, the aircraft will engage in bilateral training with Philippine Air Force pilots and "will support routine operations that enhance regional maritime domain awareness and assure access to the air and maritime domains in accordance with international law." This deployment follows on the heels of a recent US Air Force detachment of five A-10 Warthogs. These temporary air contingents were established in the wake of the Philippine Supreme Court's final approval of the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) and the identification of five bases to which US forces would newly gain access. At the time, there was some surprise that four of the five bases were air facilities and that none were ports.

Two threads on the 75th anniversary of Barbarossa, the largest land invasion in history, have been combined into other threads. In this case the results are almost comical. One headline about military events in the Pacific this week, one headline about military events in Russia 75 years ago, both bring readers to the same thread, and by the 4th post we wonder who's talking about what. I wonder how many Barbarossa threads will need to be created before we can have a discussion of Barbarossa. -Mark
