Attack on a Turkish Tanker in Ukraine
by Marc Liebman 18 Nov '25

18 Nov '25

https://www.foxnews.com/world/russian-drone-strikes-tanker-ukraines-odesa-z… If true, and the tanker was Turkish owned and flagged, this could, but probably won’t, provoke a response from NATO. On the surface, it is an article 5 violation. So question 1, did Russia put out a NOTAM warning civilian ships not to enter Ukrainian waters.

The instructor would get out and sit in the shade adjacent to a small building like this in the center of the old airfield and keep track of their students in the pattern....I suspect the picture if someplace more central to Pensacola, but the same principal...waiting to fly or keeping track of your students.mgb https://www.google.com/maps/place/Summerdale,+AL/@30.4828044,-87.7207961,13z /data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x889a129f7351c5f3:0x525940bf8f4ad623!8m2!3d30.4876 954!4d-87.6997094!16zL20vMHBndzc?entry=ttu <https://www.google.com/maps/place/Summerdale,+AL/@30.4828044,-87.7207961,13 z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x889a129f7351c5f3:0x525940bf8f4ad623!8m2!3d30.487 6954!4d-87.6997094!16zL20vMHBndzc?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTExMS4wIKXMDSoASAF QAw%3D%3D> &g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTExMS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D CDR Mike Brattland, USN (Ret.) <mailto:mgbrattland@gerlecreek.com> mgbrattland(a)gerlecreek.com <mailto:mgbrattland@brattland.org> mgbrattland(a)brattland.org Admin/Moderator SanDiegoCarGuys List & Calendar of Events <mailto:sandiegocarguys@brattland.org> sandiegocarguys(a)brattland.org 619 454-0496 '38 Willys 2 Dr Sedan Webmaster for <http://www.brattland.org/> www.brattland.org <http://www.overthehillgang.com/> www.overthehillgang.com <http://www.overdrivehotrodnews.com/> www.overdrivehotrodnews.com <http://www.gerlecreek.org/> www.gerlecreek.org <http://www.helobubbas.com/> www.helobubbas.com <http://www.prowlers.org/> www.prowlers.org <http://www.gerlecreek.com/> www.gerlecreek.com <http://www.ford6vcarburetion.com/> www.ford6vcarburetion.com <http://www.westcoastwillysclub.com/> www.westcoastwillysclub.com <http://www.nssha.org/> www.nssha.org <http://www.nhahistoricalsociety.org/> www.nhahistoricalsociety.org <https://sh60fhoas.nhahistoricalsociety.org/> https://sh60fhoas.nhahistoricalsociety.org/
