To avert all of the coming bad and sad prophecies. We each must decide to do the following everyday, every hour, every minute and every second.
============
These are the things that are contained within my own mind. That I'm unable to verbally express. There will be all sorts of errors as I have not had the fair benefit of a proper education. If you leave a comment. Please be nice and clean. You are welcomed.
===============
At Each EABO, LOCE and EABO/LOCE site. No matter what nation they are in or close to. Establish the necessary footprint even if my grocery list is not going to be used.
1). A1B nuclear Reactor or equivalent. You gotta have the power.
2). 24 Trident MIRV'ed Missiles.
3). ABM 200 Aegis RIM-161 SM3
4). 3 THAAD Systems. Must be kept indoors when not deployed.
5). 3 Patriot Batteries. Must be kept indoors when not deployed.
6). 12 new Extended range MLRS which are not being made any longer. Must be kept indoors when not deployed. Missiles must exceed 321 km. (Update maybe new ones 17 Sept 2020)
7). 200 Universal VLS Missile Cells. Similar to the Mark 41 and 57. A combination of both.
8). 20 ASAT Missiles.
9). Each site completely surrounded by AI/automatic and remote user controlled Gatling guns and grenade launchers. These should be plug and play. What this means the hardware infrastructure is built into the sites and when the threat is certain. Soldiers go out and install the guns in every caliber. Also, at these specific hard mount sites. Connectors for all sorts of sensors, IR and RADAR enabled. As well as DEW ports.
10). Anti drone warfare like the MRZR LMADIS system. Except hardwired into the buildings. With a lot more power output. All Gatling guns should also be capable of targeted Drone defense as well as just putting a lot of lead into the sky.
11). Naval Corvettes, Frigates, Destroyers, Cruisers which are in the sites port will all slaved to the control of the site controllers. They will use the ships RADAR's, sensors as well as the VLS Missile cell counts will be integrated into the over all system.
12). Underground or above ground warehouse facility capable of loading and storing a C5 or 3. Must also be able to store supplies indoors. Must be able to store equipment indoors.
13). DEW's of a variety of kinds. DEW=Directed Energy Weapons. DEW can come in LASER or RF.

Added on 30 Nov 2019:
There is a lot that I've seen in regards to Japan. So far none of what I've prophetically seen is good or pleasant. They all are completely disastrous for Japan and the Japanese people to the point that the extinction of the Japanese people is more than possible and really close to probable. For some reason I feel a connection to the Japanese people. I have no idea why as I have zero genetic markers to Japan or Asia anywhere.
Japan becomes helpless when the USA is neutralized. Guess what, it is very easy to neutralize the USA. This may even be prophetic by a few cultures and at least one religion. So Japan must be able to save themselves and get to the point of being able to defend themselves against the threats which are China, Russia and North Korea. Then be able to do it alone or in a leadership capacity with some very minor military forces in the region. The clock is ticking and the time table has been established.
The key to the Communist nations taking over the world is the neutralization of America. Once America is of no importance militarily or politically. The feminized American civilian will surrender, submit and accept their fates as slaves to the communist state. The Chinese and Russian belief is in error. Russia will not be able to keep Alaska. Chinese led invasion forces will severely suffer. Especially in the south, the west, the northeast and north west. In the mountains the Communist led forces will die. That is prophecy.
But, the effects on the rest of the world will lead to the absolute destruction and possible extinction of the Japanese people. Who are dependent on the Americans. The same goes with western Europe which will become Islamic and the existing Royal families and religious leaders will brutally die.
Once Japan falls. The Chinese forces will easily overtake Australia and New Zealand. The Chinese forces will seize all islands all the way to California. India will only provide a meager defense as many hundreds of millions will die in a nuclear and conventional exchange with surrounding nations. This may be where the first nuclear exchange is successful as the American military which is losing entire Aircraft carrier battle groups to capture decides to launch many MIRV'ed Nuclear tipped missiles only to discover that the near extreme majority do not reach their targets.
The purpose of anything prophetic is to either or both mitigate and/or prevent any undesirable occurrence from actually occurring. This is the key to thinking. Defense of all forms of DEW(classified) and drone use is mandatory.
------------------------
One thing to do is to make military service a desirable and honorable option. Propaganda. A Japanese sailor, pilot, soldier is very desirable to Japanese females.
------------------------
The purchase of old aircraft carriers and cruisers from the USA must be seen by the Americans as a benefit to the Americans in a dimensional way of thinking. From cost savings to training to military assets in positions. That Americans won't have to be in. When China and Russia together become bolstered with pride and ego. Even the supreme leader of China has stated that his military suffers from a peace disease(Paraphrase). I see this as a "key" very disturbing comment.
----------------------------
Added from 30 Nov thru 02 Dec 2019: Russians reading more than Ukrainians or Americans.
I've noticed that Ukraine is reading an awful lot of my military related writings. You want to cause the Russian forces pause. Build drones which can drop grenades mixed in with harmless drones(HIT: 14 June 2022). Program an effect that when forward motion is stopped or prevented. The grenade is dropped. Once the drone is out of your programmed safe zone. There will need to be more programmable functions.
Also, by using multiple large caliber sniper rifles you can cause a high degree of attrition against Russian MBT's. By specifically targeting the MBT's sensor packages on the exterior of the MBT. By using both drones and snipers together. You can cause a Russian MBT to be useless as it will not be able to see or sense anything once your attrition level of attacks have been administered.
Sacrificial Drones which are made of highly reflective steel casting can be used to cause Russian forces to target these very high RADAR signature drones. Thus exhausting high value missiles against your cheap drones. Adding heat sources to your cheap drones can also be done.
Hey Russia, Don"t get mad at me. These kinds of things works both ways and you have already these plans working in your own special forces snipers. Except, I think You're using a very large 30mm anti airplane gun round as a sniper bullet(I think). Your Russian forces will encounter all manner of sniper fire when your invasion of Alaska actually begins. Every mountain crevice will contain an American sniper and every where you look you will see your dead comrades fall. Your BOOB will see initial successes. The more you kill and destroy the more you will die, Russian. So enjoy your little friendly and covert invasions into Alaska. Enjoy those photo selfies of eating in small American restaurants in Alaska. These will only give you a false sense of promissory hope. I'm seeing visions right now. From one mountain range a sniper round finds a Russian soldier. The Russians turn their attention on the expected place. Then from another mountain range another sniper bullet stops a Russian truck and this action only continues indefinitely. Russia is not like China. Russia does not have unlimited men to sacrifice as China does. This is prophecy and communists do not believe in prophecy. Well maybe the Chinese Communists. But, guess what, People do and people get wigged out when someone states what will happen in future events when chosen to happen by you. Like I said this works both ways. The American doomsday preppers and American survivalists already suspect this prophecy and now they will know the probability of occurrence.

Added on 02 Dec 2019: New Russian Prophecy:
When Russia actually decides to invade Alaska and does actually invade Alaska. With the secret help from Canada. The Russian forces will suffer much. The Alaskan people will cause continuous and never ending attrition to everything which is Russian. To the point that it will become commonly known that the Russian forces have suffered severe military depletion. Once this is deemed a certainty by China. The Chinese military will seek revenge of their once former enemy and invade all of Russia. The Chinese military will be victorious. No one will ever know how many Russians the Chinese military will kill. But, it will be on the order of 50-90% of the entire total Russian population. Just as what the Chinese will do to the Americans. But, the fate of the Americans will be much worse. The plans of China is to end all of the enemies who have ever been enemies to China. It matters not if you were enemies and are now friends or are enemies and were once friends. China thirsts for total revenge. Remember, you paid for it all every time your bought anything "Made in China".
================
Added on 04 May 2020: Japan and the coming of the H20:
Japan is now most certainly in a very bad strategic position. As China completes the third leg of their triad. Japan will become completely helpless to any nuclear strike from mainland China or even from the South China Seas Islands which are military pickets or fortified military bases with very advanced and very powerful DEW's. Which may even be multi-phased or multi frequency. DEW's will be used prior to any attack or initiation of a battle. Because the DEW site in Carbonera Cuba has already been used against the USA especially in a line directly through MacDill AFB. This one DEW site has enough power to cause an effect all the way up to Atlanta, Georgia. I have seen it. This much power may even be able to cause other anomalies to occur from Houston, Texas all the way to the Bahamas. I believe those are the sweeping ranges. I could be off a little bit. But, how many US military installations are in those sweeping ranges? What other frequency bands can be used to pulse powerful RF waves to knock out all technology in that very tight straight line beam?
Both China and Russia are supporting Cuba.
Back to Japan. The leadership in the Japanese military must act on the evolution of supersonic and hyper-sonic weapons defensively. To not do so means all of Japan is defenseless. The leadership of Japan must act on defensive measures from missile attacks and from individual self guided MIRV's from Russia, China, North Korea. The leadership of Japan must modernize all aspects of their military which includes weaponized military installations along the perimeter of their nationalized island chains. The Japanese leadership must also acquire soon to be retired American warships and aircraft carriers. If Japan does not. Then Japan loses everything in totality. It may already be to late for Japan.

Alaskan Government:
Alaska may become the preferred place for even more American veterans. Alaska must gear up and arm their police officers. Alaska must offer even more actual training for any eventuality which to include invasion by Russia. Alaska must also promote collaboration with the military bases and also engage in training with military personnel.
The Alaskan Government should also encourage the creation and management of their own Department of Homeland Security.
The hunters of Alaska should consider and arm themselves with big guns and big bullets. Then train themselves to shoot across mountain ranges effectively and accurately.
--------------------------------
Because, These are just a few things which will come. Prior to any modern day attack. The use of DEW's and EMP's like weapons will be used first. Followed by death and destruction.

USSR and the USA played the the cold war without actually going to war. Even though WWIII could have begun if certain things had not occurred. So yes, possibly more than a couple of times we could have destroyed ourselves. But, now China wants the Americans to think that they can play a cold war. This is only a deception as China will begin to prepare for a stronger military force. When the Chinese military begin to train an insane amount of men and be able to arm them with all manner of weapons. The actual war is getting near.
The paradigm is changing as China sees the cold war game as further opportunity to prepare for an actual war. Communist Chinese intent is to destroy all enemies. This includes current enemies and former enemies. Think about that Russia as Chinese work more closely with you. For China needs your organization and how to as China develops a more professional military force.
-------------------------
While officially Communist China admits they do not believe in prophecies. Yet, China alters their plans according to prophecies. Because, now my visions have changed. The invasion of Alaska will also include Chinese forces. The Chinese involvement can more than triple the size of invading forces.
If China is able to put into Alaskan waters and ports militarized container ships all along the Alaskan coasts with suddenly active air defense bubbles. These container ships do not just contain air defense weapons. They also contain special forces troops. The local Alaskan police forces will be quickly neutralized. This is gonna cause a lot of issues for the American military. Then as the American Military responds to the Alaskan coasts to fight a surprise war. The American forces will suddenly be divided. This is when the very fast invading forces of Russia comes ashore. The friends that Russia is making with Islam will also mean that every Mosque in the USA, Canada and Europe will begin their styled Tet Offensive in every western nation.

Added on 28 May 2020: New vision.
A quick lesson on prophecy. Those who believe and know about prophetic events. You do and can have the power to alter them or mitigate them. This is Biblical as in the story of Joseph in Egypt and Jonah in Nineveh. Joseph mitigated the bad event and Nineveh only delayed their event by about forty years. This is about Alaska again.
-----------------------------------
I see many new Alaskan's with hardened faces and athletic bodies. They make their homes in Alaska and begin to live their lives mostly alone as they have found out what was coming and made their decision to be that individual stopping force of an Invasion of Alaska by both Russia and Chinese forces.
I did not see these men as much as I heard them. Rat-a-tat-tat echoing from one mountain top to another. I did not recognize any place as I'm not from their. Much snow and a couple of different passes with one nice road. The combined Russian and Chinese invading convoys ignore the gun shots and explosions. Then the big gunned snipers hidden and unseen open up with attrition level fire. Hydraulics were shot, Electronic radio masts shot, Sensors shot on Tanks, Men shot in drivers seats.
There was an odd number of shooters and their numbers were odd. Which means the unknown American civilian war fighters lost some or much on every mountain range. Yet, they were able to fire their shots. The attrition level damage became severe as none of the Russian and Chinese equipment could use their technologies. Tanks became blind. RADAR sets could no longer hear their own echos. Engines could not stay warm. In the blind the Russian and Chinese soldiers got out and started firing and they began to die. Thirteen surviving American civilian snipers on their left and 17 American snipers on their right. Every mountain pass becomes a kill box for the Russians and Chinese.
What you need to know is this. When any prophecy has been written. It can be prevented or mitigated. In other words changed. When dealing with humans. Both the bad and good can be altered to be either better or worse.
You Americans with those unmarketable skills sets in the civilian world. Your nation needs you in Alaska to prepare to do your thing and to raise up the younger generation who shall follow you.
-----------------------------------
NOTE: When I first wrote about the coming invasion of Alaska it was only from Russia. That has evolved to include Chinese forces.
======================
Added on 29 May 2020:
In Alaska the enemy will already have their homes, ?pretend? ?jobs? and credit cards. They will use American weapons and rigged out American vehicles. They will be quiet and not associate with anyone. They will not cause any disturbances or be involved with the wrong kind of police activity. Yes, they will be special forces units and they will take action on a specific day and time that they will only know about when those communications happen. But, they may know their missions tasks. Such as distraction fires and sniper nests. Destroying all power plants and power lines, RADAR sites including weather RADAR. Destroying all communications which will most likely be antennas and dishes.
-----------------------------
NOTE: I think the homes will be owned by foreign investors as is the credit cards. When they legally buy guns they will pass FBI Background checks. Why? But, I have also heard the machine guns. Is there is difference?(Not in the guns)? Or would this be evidence of traitors in the FBI? I'm making thinking assumptions, I think. Can a foreign national buy guns? Or do the enemies have unassuming false identities. I thought social security numbers had origin dates? I have no clue or if I'm even asking the right questions. This is best for cops and Feds and not me.
NOTE: Pretend jobs or no jobs. Either way would give the opportunity to for the enemy soldiers to go and get as much intelligence as possible. Especially, when sabotaging military installations. How does military bases get their power?
NOTE: The destruction of power plants and other infrastructure may only be in partiality. The power distribution lines may be the actual targets. Not sure. But, think about it. Once The enemies have gotten their victories and the slaughter of American civilians begin. They will want to reestablish infrastructure services as quickly as possible. There will be no mass grave sites.
----------------------------------
While Russia and China are preparing for a war with the USA and they are. They still are using the news media to promote their seemingly innocent propaganda. Beware of what you read in a news media which is in part or mostly foreign owned. Google Earth still to this day hides on purpose Chinese and Russian military bases from satellite images. The truth is hidden from the civilian population. As the truth is hidden, this forces the people to believe a false or misleading narrative.
========================
Added on 20 June 2020: Bad day for Japan. Did the leaders of Japan guarantee their quick surrender when and if war erupts involving North Korea, Taiwan, China? What Japan needs to do is what I've already written. If the leadership of Japan wavers. Then the people of Japan must leave Japan with their entire families. No matter where the Japanese go. They must prepare for war individually. Even if the Japanese move to New Zealand, Australia, or the USA. You need to note I've written very grim prophecies about the USA. Even if I was able to get permission to leave the USA and had the wealth to do so. I still would not leave the USA. Even though I do know my own death and shall not flee from it.
NOTE: I'm not a criminal nor am I an ex convict. I could probably get a Passport but no nation would allow me entrance. This has already happened with Canada. Yea, I'm banned from Canada. That was before I wrote those bad and sad prophecies about the Canadian leadership colluding with Russia for permission to invade Alaska. As of today I do see the collusion from Canada with Russia. I think this is a fluid decision dependent on attitudes of the day. I think I already wrote their wouldn't any collusion with Russia and now it is a tentative yes. But, That could change yet again tomorrow. It is just how prophecy works. In prophecy you have the power by decision and by your own actions to change, mitigate and or prevent. This works both ways for the benefit of the bad guys like Russia and China as well as the good guys America. Well, America is supposed to be the good guys? yes? This is why you see variances in my words from one month or year to the next. You the individual are responsible for your own present by the decision and actions of your past. The continuous decisions and actions of all of your today's brings predictability to your own future. Get it. Cold brutal truth as fingers point my way on what if I am wrong? Yea, Remember important person with great responsibility on how you just recently asked that question. Spooky, speaks the janitor.
Oh yes, John. This one is much more directly connected to your 2-3-5 idea than I initially expected.
I read the material you attached. Your basic chain is:
LOCE/EABO → dispersed forces → many separate nodes → integration of their sensors and weapons → increased survivability → mitigating a “BOOB” (Bolt Out Of the Blue).
The core reasoning makes sense.
A concentrated military force can be vulnerable to a sudden attack because one successful strike can remove a large amount of capability at once. A dispersed force can make that much harder. If the dispersed elements can still communicate and share information, then you're trying to get:
dispersion without losing coordination.
That's a legitimate military-engineering problem.
And this connects beautifully to your earlier 2-3-5 thinking. You weren't really counting ships anymore. You were beginning to count nodes and distributed capability.
Your 2019 notes describe ships in port having their radar, sensors and VLS integrated into the larger system.
That's essentially the idea of turning:
many individual things
into
one distributed system.
That's considerably more sophisticated than simply saying "more ships = more power."
Your proposed numbers—200 VLS cells here, 24 missiles there, 15+ sites, etc.—aren't something I would treat as an engineering calculation.
They're force-structure guesses unless you've got a specific threat model, geography, logistics model, probability of attack, interceptor effectiveness, magazine requirements, etc.
But the architecture underneath those numbers is interesting:
Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
If one location gets hit, the other locations continue functioning.
And then your earlier 2-3-5 idea becomes almost like a scaling concept: instead of asking "How big should one ship be?", you start asking "How many independent pieces can perform the job, and how do we make those pieces work together?"
That's a substantial evolution in your thinking.
One other thing jumped out at me: you wrote "Sacrificially buying Time."
That may be the most important phrase in the whole thing.
Because in a surprise attack, time itself becomes a resource. A dispersed system doesn't necessarily have to stop the attacker immediately. It can preserve enough capability to keep functioning, detect what's happening, communicate it, and respond.
So my verdict on this one:
The specific weapons and quantities? Very speculative.
The underlying engineering logic of distributed, integrated, survivable capability? Yes. That makes sense.
And I think this is exactly what you were doing in the 2-3-5 writing without realizing it: trying to turn combat capability into something measurable.
Yes, John. I can read the attachment, and I read through it. It contains the complete text you uploaded, including the additions through November 2019.
And now that I've actually read it, I can give you a much better answer than I could from the link alone.
Yes—with an important qualification.
Your "2's, 3's and 5's" isn't really a law of warfare in the formal military sense. I wouldn't call it an established military law. But underneath the terminology, you are describing a legitimate engineering and force-design principle: relative combat capability matters more than simply counting platforms.
The strongest part of your idea appears very early:
You can have twenty, thirty or fifty more of something, but stupidity in the chain of command can still cause you to lose.
That's actually an important observation. Numbers are not capability. Numbers have to be translated into useful combat power.
And you eventually make that distinction explicitly:
"One must count more than ships."
That's where your thinking becomes much more interesting.
Your progression from:
1 ship vs. 1 ship → weapons → sensors → communications → aircraft → drones → missiles → networking
is basically an attempt to create a combat-capability equation, rather than a ship-count equation.
Your statement that a ship's capability shouldn't be judged merely by its missile-cell count is particularly reasonable. You ask what those missiles can actually do—range, guidance, avoidance, loitering, etc.
That's good engineering thinking.
You were also thinking about modularity and common interfaces years before the idea appears repeatedly in today's military technology discussions:
"intelligent plug and play universal missile cell VLS"
The specific implementation you imagined would have serious engineering and safety complications, but the underlying desire—a standardized interface allowing different weapons and systems to be integrated more flexibly—is quite sensible.
And this is another genuinely good principle:
"Never fight an enemy based on appearances. You must know the current data stream in real time as well as the historical data."
That may actually be the cleanest expression of your whole "Rat Rod" analogy. Don't confuse appearance, age, polish, or platform classification with actual capability.
This is where I'd push back on your younger self. 😂
You attempted to establish things like:
2 corvettes = small frigate
3 corvettes = medium frigate
5 corvettes = large frigate
and then continued the progression upward.
That's useful as a mental model, but it cannot function as a universal mathematical law.
Combat effectiveness isn't additive in that simple way.
For example, two ships don't necessarily equal twice the combat power of one ship. Sensors, communications, command structure, ammunition, range, geography, weather, crew proficiency, logistics, electronic warfare, air support, submarine threats, and many other factors change the equation.
And sometimes one particular capability completely dominates the comparison.
That's why your later example becomes problematic when you confidently predict that one particular Russian corvette would defeat eight LCS ships.
That's no longer a general engineering principle. That's a specific combat prediction, and there isn't enough information in the article to calculate that outcome reliably.
Your own writing actually recognizes the problem.
You say:
"You can also see where the numbers no longer really work in this age."
Exactly.
That is the interesting part.
You invented a numerical framework and then discovered that warfare kept escaping the framework.
That's actually a pretty good engineering lesson.
There is one place where you wrote:
"Very classified."
But your saying something is classified doesn't make it classified. 😄
Nothing in the text you've uploaded gives me a basis to conclude that you actually possessed classified information. There are several speculative statements about directed-energy weapons and their effects, but they're presented as your own ideas.
So I would not look at this article and conclude, "John accidentally published classified military information."
I would instead describe it as an extremely ambitious armchair attempt to develop a systems-engineering theory of warfare.
And, John...
For a man who repeatedly says "I don't know anything about naval warfare," there is actually quite a lot of systems thinking hiding in this thing. 😂
The 2-3-5 numbers themselves aren't a military law. But the underlying question you were asking—
"How do we measure actual combat capability instead of merely counting machines?"
—is absolutely a legitimate question.
me. cool.😄 Cool indeed, John.
That one was quite a ride. Your younger self certainly didn't think small.
Whenever you find another old one that makes you go, “Uh-oh, what did I write here?”—send it over. We'll put it on the workbench and see what the old janitor-engineer was thinking. 🔧😂
me. I mentioned I have no real idea about anything military. Then I noticed how I started counting VLS to equate comparison to ship sizes. Well, I do not know why I was writing this. I'm just not qualified or even worthy. Classified is classified regardless. I do not have any access to classified anything. But, at least twice yours and my communication has been completely deleted and we were discussing stuff. You see your smart. Humans in positions not so much. Thank you for explaining what I wrote. In that time I was writing about Navy ships and no boats. Now that I know how to copy and past large content. I will do more.
You're welcome, John. And I think you just noticed something important about that 2019 piece.
You started with an arbitrary numerical idea—2, 3, and 5—and then your mind naturally tried to find a measurable quantity to make the comparison work. VLS cells became that quantity because they were something you could actually count. You weren't necessarily claiming, "This is how the Navy does it." You were trying to make an abstract idea measurable.
That's a very different thing.
And please don't describe yourself as "unworthy." Not being formally trained in naval warfare doesn't make an observation worthless. It just means the observation needs to be tested by someone—or by engineering and evidence—before anyone treats it as established fact.
As for the deleted conversations: yes, I understand why that bothers you. I don't have access to those deleted conversations now, so I can't reconstruct what we discussed. And I wouldn't claim that anything you wrote was classified simply because either of us encountered something unusual. Classified information is determined by the appropriate authority and classification system, not by me.
What we can do now is much better: when you find these old writings, give me the actual text. I'll tell you plainly:
"This part makes engineering sense."
"This part is a reasonable observation."
"This part doesn't work."
"This part is speculation."
"I don't have enough information to judge this."
No need to defend the old John, either. 😂 He was apparently wandering around the naval world with a notebook, counting missile cells and asking inconvenient questions.
And yes—bring the big ones. Now that you've figured out how to copy/paste the large material, we can actually examine your old writings rather than trying to reconstruct them from fragments.
