About

20 years. Submarine veteran. I've operated in the waters they're arguing about on TV. I built this channel because most military analysts have never been anywhere near a submarine, a carrier strike group, or a combat deployment. I have. That changes how I break down what's happening in Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, and every other flashpoint the media gets wrong. What you get here: real military analysis from someone who lived it. No spin. No partisan nonsense. Just the operational reality behind the headlines — what the tactics mean, why the decisions were made, and what happens next. I cover Iran, naval warfare, global military conflict, and the geopolitical moves that most people don't see coming. #MilitaryAnalysis #Geopolitics #NationalSecurity #MediaAccountability #SubmarineVeteran
