On the Radar: Military Confidence Poll, TRICARE Deadline & Pearl Harbor

Here's what's on the radar this week in military life. New survey results show Americans' confidence in the U.S. military at its lowest since 2018, but support for NATO and aid to Ukraine is climbing. This is from the 2025 Reagan National Defense Survey released December 4th. The survey shows despite partisan differences, majorities across the country back a strong military, global leadership, and helping Ukraine defend its sovereignty. An important reminder, the TRICARE open season ends Tuesday, December 9th. That means you've just got a couple of days to review your plan, compare costs, and add benefits like vision or dental. The changes take effect January 1st of next year. December is one of the best times for veterans to land a job. Find out why and get a veteran-specific game plan for December job hunting on veteranlife.com. And on December 7th, we honor and remember the 2,403 service members and civilians killed during the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. The last unidentified crew members of the USS Arizona may finally soon be named. Operation 85 has collected over 650 DNA kits to identify the final 86 sailors and Marines. And the Defense POW MIA Accounting Agency plans to give them graves that bear their names. That's your briefing. Follow my base guide and Veteran Life so you never miss what's on the radar.
