Anyone seen my F-35? US searches for fighter jet after mishap

Lost fighter jetThe U.S. military said on Monday it was still searching for an F-35 fighter jet after a mishap on Sunday near an air base in South Carolina and has asked for the public's help locating it.

The pilot of the F-35B Lightning II jet ejected safely from the aircraft, according to a statement from Joint Base Charleston.

"If you have any information that may help our recovery teams locate the F-35, please call the Base Defense Operations Center at 843-963-3600," the base said on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The fighter jet's main advantages, according to its manufacturer, Lockheed Martin (LMT.N), are that it is nearly impossible to track with radar and is packed with advanced sensors and other gear.

Pentagon releases new website on UFOs

Pentaagpn releases UFO website

The Defense Department on Thursday released a new website that will provide official declassified information on UFOs, including pictures and videos, for the public to easily parse through.

The website is the official page for the public to interact with the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), a relatively new Pentagon office tasked with reviewing and analyzing UFOs.

The site appears to still be under construction, but it can be found here. The Hill has reached out to the Defense Department for more information about when the full website will go live.

The U.S. government, which now refers to UFOs by the name of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs), has taken the presence of unknown flying objects more seriously in the past few years, as has Congress.

Army doctor scrutinized in sprawling sex abuse case

Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state An Army doctor has been under investigation for more than a year in a sprawling sexual assault case involving at least 23 alleged victims, including his patients, according to military documents obtained by The Washington Post and interviews with four people familiar with the case.

Maj. Michael D. Stockin, 37, could be charged within days, said a senior Pentagon official and two other people who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an active criminal probe. The Army, in a statement, said Stockin was “suspended from seeing patients” in February 2022. He had been assigned as an anesthesiologist to Madigan Army Medical Center at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state. The service would not address whether charges are imminent.

“The Army does not comment on ongoing investigations as a matter of policy,” Cynthia Smith, a spokeswoman, said in a statement. “While we’re limited in what we can say … the Army takes all allegations of sexual assault seriously — this includes investigating thoroughly, supporting victims, and holding offenders accountable when warranted.”
