A 95-year-old WWII veteran has written and self-published a book recalling his experiences as a member of RAF Bomber Command. John Henry Meller, from the Vale of Glamorgan, never previously spoke about his experiences as an Avro Lancaster bomber - one of the most dangerous places to be during the conflict, where aircrew were warned they had a 50/50 chance of survival. But a number of years ago he was persuaded by a relative to write down what he could remember to ensure that future generations would never forget. Now, with the help of his family, his memoirs have been self-published in the form of a book, and 100 copies are being sold around the world every week. ITV Wales Correspondent Richard Morgan went to meet him. • Subscribe to ITV News on YouTube: http://bit.ly/2lOHmNj • Get breaking news and more stories at http://www.itv.com/news Follow ITV News on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itvnews/ Follow ITV News on Twitter: https://twitter.com/itvnews Follow ITV News on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itvnews/

,"the U.S. is preparing for what comes next..." with Neil Degrasse Tyson Neil Degrasse Tyson, The U.S. is preparing for war. With new missiles, jets, warships and now lasers, the U.S. Navy is preparing itself for any incoming threat from Russia. And now that the world's largest and most expensive ship, the USS Gerald R. Ford, has joined the fleet, Russia may be in for quite a surprise. Join us as we learn about the newest U.S. Navy weapons that can cause some devastating damage. The USS Gerald R. Ford It's no secret that the U.S. just loves new toys. And when we say toys, what we really mean is billion-dollar weapons with powers of mass destruction. And the newest item to join their already impressive list of weapons is the USS Gerald R. Ford. This isn't a weapon per se, but a massive ship that will carry all the unimaginably powerful weaponry that it can carry. The newest aircraft carrier was a jaw-dropping sight the first time it set sail. And the public finally got a look at the scale of the newest aircraft carrier. You see, at this point, it is not only the world's largest warship ever built, but also the most expensive one ever. It cost the United States $13.3 billion to bring this behemoth to life. And we're not using that word lightly. The ship is nine stories tall over sea level and weighs 97,000 tons. Just looking at this aircraft is bound to strike fear into an enemy's heart. But there's even more good news. You see, the U.S. Navy's newest aircraft carrier is actually ready to be deployed. And this is major news because the USS Gerald R. Ford has been a dream for the past 21 years. What started with a simple concept almost two decades ago is finally a reality, and it will officially become a part of the U.S. fleet in May 2023. Everyone's been busy ensuring that this ship is actually seaworthy. Sure, it may look like it is, but that doesn't mean anything. Thankfully, successful training with various aircraft and other carriers has been conducted over the last few months, and what do you know, nothing but good news for the USA. So it was finally ready for the final exercise, the one to test how it would deploy. This exercise is known as Comp 2X. During this exercise, the ship works together with all other members in the fleet to see if it performs as expected. The USS Gerald passed with flying colors and got all its certifications, and in a few weeks, she'll be setting sail for six months for its first mission. But the road to this day wasn't easy. That may not sound too surprising, but the size of the warship really exaggerated the problems. In fact, the past decade has been marred with problem after problem that delayed the ship's deployment by years. And it also raised the costs by a couple of billion dollars when compared to the Navy's original estimates. Yes, budget issues are normal, but not by billions of dollars, surely. The cause of all these issues wasn't necessarily the ship itself, but all the equipment that it was to be jam-packed with. One of the most troublesome pieces of technology were the electromagnetic aircraft launch system, advanced weapons elevators, and advanced arresting gear. These are just upgraded versions of their original equipment and are meant to do the job more efficiently. Instead, these components and many more turned out to become a huge point of discord that the Navy, lawmakers, and even President Donald Trump couldn't seem to stop arguing about. And if that wasn't enough, the ship was still incomplete as recently as March. The construction of the ship was also ongoing up until a couple of months ago, but no longer. This is the last time that a ship will take six years to deploy after it's delivered. Yes, it took six years for them to get the ship seaworthy. We told you it wasn't easy. Thankfully, not only will these troubles not bother them again, they're a thing of the past.

,

In this episode of America's Untold Stories, we delve into the fascinating story of Mayer Lansky, the notorious mobster who played a pivotal role in thwarting Nazi infiltration in America during World War II. Born in Poland, Lansky immigrated to the United States with his family when he was just a child. As a young man, he quickly fell into a life of crime, eventually becoming one of the most powerful figures in the American mafia. But despite his criminal connections, Lansky was fiercely patriotic and deeply committed to protecting his adopted country from its enemies.

During the war years, Lansky put his skills to use in service of the U.S. government, using his vast network of underworld connections to gather intelligence and disrupt Nazi operations in America. He worked closely with law enforcement officials and military intelligence operatives, sharing crucial information and coordinating operations to root out Nazi spies and sympathizers.

Trump Immediately Panics After Claiming He Is Open To Banning Contraceptives

The Ring of Fire check_circle

42K views 2 years ago

,During an interview this week, Donald Trump claimed that his campaign is "looking into" restrictions on contraceptives for women in the United States. These comments immediately sparked a massive backlash, forcing Donald Trump to get on social media and say that he has never "and will never" restrict access to contraceptives in this country. But the damage is already done, and it is obvious that he has an agenda that he doesn't want the public to be aware of. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.

Donald Trump had a big oopsie do moment this week when he told a local news station during an interview that his campaign was, quote, looking into restricting birth control access here in the United States. In fact, he went as far as to say that, you know, they're gonna have a pretty big policy on that released very soon. Here's his quote. The question was, do you support any restriction on a person's right to contraception? And Trump says, we're looking at that, and I'm going to have a policy on that very shortly. Things really do have a lot to do with the states, and some states are going to have different policy than others. So here is Donald Trump, the former president of the United States, he wants to be the next president of the United States, telling us that they're looking into restricting contraceptive access here in the United States. That, of course, did not go over well with really anyone including Republicans, which then led Donald Trump hours later after this interview, by the way, was taken offline because gotta protect Donald Trump, he then later came out on Truth Social and said, I have never and will never restrict contraceptive access here in the United States. Nope, totally not a thing that's gonna happen. Even though this is actually not the first time he has said that. In fact, it's not the second time he said that, I think it's like the third or fourth time he has said it. He said it multiple times in an April 12th interview, he said, I feel very strongly about it. I actually think it's a very important issue. And then of course, said we'd have a policy in a couple weeks. Then again, on April 27th in a follow-up interview, he said over the next week or two they would go ahead and have a policy on that. Then on April 30th, he did it again. So he has repeatedly let us know that, hey, we're thinking about restricting contraceptive access here in the United States. Repeatedly said it, not just this week, multiple times. When they show you who they are, believe them, folks. If you want access to contraceptives, do not vote for Republicans. If you want reproductive health freedom for yourself, do not vote for Republicans. They are taking us with these insanely draconian proposals back to the Dark Ages at this point. This is beyond bonkers. I mean, this is beyond Handmaid's Tale type stuff, folks. This is what they want to do. They're telling us this is what they want to do. I don't know what more it's going to take to get through to the rest of the voters in the country that this is what they're planning. And Donald Trump, of course, oh, he's waffled on it. Yes, I'm gonna do it. I'm thinking about it. No, of course I'm not gonna do it. Never in a million years. He'll do what Republicans tell him to do once he gets in office. Once he gets in office, no holds barred, right? He'll do whatever the Republicans want him to do. He'll do his own revenge stuff as well. That's another thing. But if they put this bill in front of him, he'll do it. So if you care about access to contraception, you know which party not to vote for this coming November.
