Spc. Mackenzie L. Shay, a 20-year-old petroleum supply specialist with the 28th Infantry Division's 128th Brigade Support Battalion, took the life of an oath she had sworn to serve while training on home soil. She was driving an M1120 Load Handling System at Fort Indiantown Gap in Pennsylvania when a routine supply mission drill turned fatal.
Shay and three fellow soldiers were moving two M1120 vehicles single file along a tank trail to collect ammunition dunnage. The vehicle ahead of her came to a stop, and the LHS she was driving rear-ended it. The flat rack from the lead truck entered and crushed the driver's side cab of her vehicle. Fellow soldiers in the convoy pulled her from the wreck, but she had no pulse and perished at the scene. The three others involved were taken to a hospital as a precaution and were not seriously hurt. Army officials later confirmed her death was the first Ground Mobility Vehicle fatality of that fiscal year, in a category that has claimed the lives of an average of nine soldiers annually over the preceding four years.
Training accidents rarely draw the same attention as combat losses, yet they carry the same weight of sacrifice. Shay's service, and the Army's subsequent safety review of the incident, are reminders that readiness itself carries risk, and that vigilance in routine operations is never optional.

The fiancée of 1st Lt. Tyler Feehan is sharing an emotional tribute to the 25-year-old Army officer killed in action while serving in Jordan amid the conflict with Iran.
"Tyler Feehan was my fiancé and the love of my life. His loss has devastated me beyond imagining, and there are no words that can truly capture the depth of that grief.
To the world, Tyler was an Army officer. To those who knew and loved him, he was so much more. Serving others and standing up for what he believed in wasn't just a job. It was his purpose. Tyler embodied everything the Army values strive to represent: loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity, and personal courage. He didn't just wear those values on his uniform—he lived them every single day.
Tyler looked up to Ted Lasso as an example of the kind of leader he wanted to be. He believed that leadership began with kindness, humility, and genuinely caring about people. It never mattered to him what someone's past was, their financial situation, their race, their gender, or their rank. He believed every person deserved dignity, compassion, and the opportunity to succeed.
His soldiers meant everything to him. He went above and beyond to make sure they were prepared not only for their military careers but for life beyond the Army. Whether it was helping them understand their education benefits, teaching them about financial responsibility, or simply taking the time to listen when they needed someone, Tyler poured his heart into serving those under his leadership. Every day, he would come home and tell me stories about his soldiers. Their accomplishments, their struggles, and how proud he was of them. I hope each and every one of them knows just how much they meant to him.
Outside of the Army, Tyler found joy in the little things that made him who he was. He loved building LEGO sets, cheering for the Atlanta Falcons, using Dr. Squatch soap and drinking Shatto Milk from Missouri. He loved to travel.
After his military service, Tyler wanted to become a high school football coach. He wanted to mentor young people, teach them the game he loved, and help anyone willing to listen to understand personal finance so they could build a secure and successful future. Tyler believed in investing in people. His goal was to leave every person he met better than he found them.
His legacy is not only one of service to his country but of compassion, generosity, and an unwavering belief in the goodness and potential of others. I know countless lives are forever changed because he chose to lead with his heart.
The very last text message Tyler sent me before he died was simply, “I love you.” Those three words were perfect even if he didn’t know it at the time. This is the man he was. This is how I hope Tyler Feehan is remembered: not only as an exceptional Army officer, but as a man whose greatest strength was his heart. I will love him for the rest of my life, and I will do everything I can to honor the legacy he leaves behind."

Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America.
People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate.
A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him.
Enough is enough. It is time for ABC to take a stand. How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behavior at the expense of our community.
HOLY CR*P 🚨 This brewery called Minocqua Brewing Company in Wisconsin upset that Donald Trump didn’t get assassinated tonight is owned by Kirk Bangstad
Kirk Bangstad is a Democrat who ran for Wisconsin State Assembly
He founded a Democrat Super PAC that raised millions to support Democratic politicians, judges and liberal causes
He sued to keep Trump off Wisconsin ballots.
🚨 HOLY CRAP! No WONDER Gavin Newsom is suing to block Trump's executive order requiring barcode tracking for mail-in ballots
CA vote fraudster Shakir Khan had 71 NAMES and 41 COMPLETED MAIL-IN BALLOTS at his single house
They want to protect fraud
I've seen birth tourism up close. It's a total abuse of the system.
Think about it -- someone like me, who was not born in the U.S. but has lived here since I was a 6 years old, will never be able to run for President. But a child born here through birth tourism, then taken back and raised in their parents' country, never growing up with American values, somehow can.
American citizenship is not an "insurance policy."
🚨 HOLY CRAP! Practically ALL Democrats just stood and cheered when President Trump called them out for voting AGAINST middle class tax cuts
They won’t clap for vets. They won’t clap for angel moms.
But they clap for their support of SCREWING the middle class.
Shocker 🙄
🔥 President Trump catered McDONALD’s for Team USA at the White House today, bringing in STACKS of double cheeseburgers 🤣
All while patriotic songs BLASTED in the background
There’ll NEVER be another President like Trump 😂
New Super Bowl ad just dropped reminding women facing unexpected pregnancies that adoption is an option.
Rarely do we see an ad like this, especially during the Super Bowl. If one woman sees this & decides not to terminate her baby, then it's worth every penny spent @LiveAction
Here are:
Two animals who kidnapped, a woman at an Oklahoma casino repeatedly raped and sodomized her.
The animals were identified as 35-year-old Luis Miguel Dominguez and 24-year-old Jose Fernandez-Lux Morales, both now on ICE detainers.
These are the animals that Democrats are organizing and funding protests for.
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Virginia under Democrat Gov. Abigail Spanberger will now RELEASE an illegal alien who strangled his 8-month-old baby sister to death with a charging cord — WITHOUT turning him over to ICE
"He will be on Virginia streets INSTEAD of turning over to ICE. We're not allowed to be notified!"
THIS IS MADNESS! This is a generational betrayal.
Virginia voters, elections have consequences. Vote red next time.
