  + stars: | 2024-02-15 | by ( Jake Epstein | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
The US Navy spent months shooting down Houthi drones and missiles in the air. Business Insider visited US Navy warships in the Red Sea this week and learned more about this tactical shift. AdvertisementThe US Navy spent months tirelessly shooting down Houthi threats in the air, but it never struck the Iran-backed rebels in Yemen directly. The shift in tactics toward an emphasis on preemptive action began in mid-January and has seen the US destroy a large amount of Houthi drones and missiles, including anti-ship cruise and ballistic missiles. Beyond taking out airborne drones, the Navy is using intelligence to identify them in Yemen before they are launched and strike them there.

☆ The 4 most dangerous missions American troops carried out 79 years ago on D-Day
  + stars: | 2023-06-06 | by ( Katie Sanders | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
The D-Day invasion was the largest seaborne invasion in history and a turning point in World War II. By the end of the Normandy campaign, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians had been killed or wounded. The greatest risks were borne by American troops who arrived in the first wave, seized clifftop artillery, and set up balloons to defend against aerial attacks. The invasion, codenamed Operation Neptune and remembered as D-Day, sent roughly 156,000 British, Canadian, and American troops to the Nazi-occupied French coast by air and sea, beginning the multi-month Battle of Normandy and the liberation of Western Europe from Hitler's Wehrmacht. Citino described the most perilous jobs American troops performed to help make the D-Day landings a World War II turning point.
