Hey guys, just wanted to talk about a cool thing that happened last Sunday. We won Best Military Aviation Submission at the 2026 Defense Media Awards in Washington, D.C., for “What The F-47’s Canards Say About The Rest Of Its Design.” This is the biggest deal in our little corner of journalism. Not just that, but we were nominated in many categories:

Tyler: Best Defense Electronics and Best Missile Defense

Tyler and Joe Trevithick: Best Rotorcraft

Howard Altman: Integrated Maritime, AI Integration, and the John Morrocco Award for In Depth Reporting

Thomas Newdick: Training, Simulation and Readiness, and Missile Defense

Jamie Hunter: Best Multimedia

Hope Seck: National Security Space

Joe Trevithick: Space and Mobile Combat Systems

A big thanks to the committee and the Defense Media Awards!

Welcome to Bunker Talk. This is a weekend open discussion post for the best commenting crew on the net, in which we can chat about all the stuff that went on this week that we didn’t cover. We can also talk about the stuff we did or whatever else grabs your interest. In other words, it’s an off-topic thread.

This week’s caption reads:

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (Sep. 18, 2023) – Navy Explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) technicians assigned to EOD Mobile Unit (EODMU) 6 conduct radiological search procedures at a training bunker onboard Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story as part of a training evolution, Sep. 18. EODMU 6 provides operational EOD capabilities for the location, identification, rendering safe, recovery, field evaluation and disposal of explosive ordnance, including chemical and nuclear weapons.

If you want to talk politics, do so respectfully and know that there’s always somebody that isn’t going to agree with you.

If you have political differences, hash it out respectfully, stick to the facts, and no childish name-calling or personal attacks of any kind. If you can’t handle yourself in that manner, then please, discuss virtually anything else.

No drive-by garbage political memes. No conspiracy theory rants. Links to crackpot sites will be axed, too. Trolling and shitposting will not be tolerated. No obsessive behavior about other users. Just don’t interact with folks you don’t like.

Do not be a sucker and feed trolls! That’s as much on you as on them. Use the mute button if you don’t like what you see.

So unless you have something of quality to say, know how to treat people with respect, understand that everyone isn’t going to subscribe to your exact same worldview, and have come to terms with the reality that there is no perfect solution when it comes to moderation of a community like this, it’s probably best to just move on.

Finally, as always, report offenders, please. This doesn’t mean reporting people who don’t share your political views, but we really need your help in this regard.

非常感谢委员会和国防媒体奖！

欢迎来到“地堡闲聊”。这是一个周末开放讨论帖，供网络上最棒的评论员们畅所欲言，我们可以在这里聊聊本周我们没报道过的所有事情。我们也可以聊聊我们做过的事情，或者任何你感兴趣的话题。换句话说，这是一个无主题讨论帖。

本周的标题是：

弗吉尼亚海滩，弗吉尼亚州（2023 年 9 月 18 日）——9 月 18 日，隶属于第 6 机动爆炸物处理部队 (EODMU 6) 的海军爆炸物处理 (EOD) 技术人员在小溪-斯托里联合远征基地的一个训练掩体中进行放射性搜索程序，这是训练演习的一部分。EODMU 6 提供爆炸物处理作战能力，包括爆炸物（包括化学武器和核武器）的定位、识别、安全处置、回收、现场评估和处置。

如果你想谈论政治，请保持尊重，并且要知道总会有人不同意你的观点。

如果你们有政治分歧，请以尊重的态度进行讨论，只谈事实，不要进行幼稚的谩骂或人身攻击。如果你们无法做到这一点，那么请你们讨论其他任何话题。

禁止发布垃圾政治梗图。禁止散播阴谋论。指向荒谬网站的链接也会被删除。恶意挑衅和胡言乱语绝不容忍。禁止对其他用户过度关注。不喜欢的人就不要互动。

别上当受骗，别理会那些喷子！这既是他们的错，也是你的错。如果你不喜欢看到的内容，就按静音键。

所以，除非你有有价值的内容要说，懂得如何尊重他人，明白并非每个人都会认同你的世界观，并且已经接受了这样一个现实：对于像这样的社区管理，没有完美的解决方案，否则最好还是离开。

最后，一如既往，请举报违法者。这并不意味着举报那些与您政治观点不同的人，但我们确实需要您在这方面的帮助。
