Excellent history video on the war experience of McBride, a WW1 machine gunner and sniper. He wrote “A Rifleman went to War” which is a great book.

Olga Khmil, one of Molfar’s intelligence analysts, says Russia is now using group channels in messaging apps like Telegram to aim its artillery better. Russians pretending to be Ukrainians on these channels feign fear of shelling in order to elicit information about infrastructure that has and has not been hit. On May 24th the sbu revealed an even more devious approach to such espionage. The agency said it had discovered that Russian intelligence was using smartphone games to induce unwitting youngsters to snap and upload geotagged photos of critical infrastructure, military and civilian. In exchange, players receive virtual prizes of no value outside the video-game world.

This morning, Ukraine's IT Army seemed to successfully delay Putin's speech by an hour and a half with a DDoS attack. About 20 minutes ago, the IT Army posted headlines from Russian news reports about it for its followers: "You did a very good job today!" nbcnews.com/news/world/put…
