U.S. Navy Burnout, Ukraine’s Forced Draft & Five Years of Taliban Rule
What happens when military power runs into the limits of manpower, logistics and morale?

Also: Afghanistan five years after the Taliban takeover, Trump and Kim Jong-un, Iran, Russian air-defense technology—and some decidedly lighter musical interruptions.
