This week's military news roundup covers U.S. diplomatic evacuations from Saudi Arabia amid escalating Houthi militant strikes from Yemen, Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer's appointment as senior advisor to the Pentagon's Barracks Task Force, and USS Abraham Lincoln's home port shift from San Diego to Bremerton, WA following 322 days at sea — triggering a PCS move for the carrier's crew and families.

On the Radar
Here's what's on the radar in military life this week. The U.S. is ordering some diplomats and their families to leave Saudi Arabia amid a growing threat from Houthi militants. The move comes as the Iran-backed group launches additional strikes from Yemen, raising new security concerns for U.S. personnel in the region. Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer is taking on a new mission, improving military barracks. U.S. Secretary Pete Hegseth named the Marine Reservist a senior advisor to the Pentagon's Barracks Task Force. Meyer will visit installations nationwide, inspect living conditions, and hear directly from service members about what needs fixing. After a grueling 322 days at sea, USS Abraham Lincoln sailors are preparing for another major transition. The carrier is officially shifting its home port from San Diego to Bremerton, Washington, this for a scheduled maintenance period later this year. This also means a PCS move for the ship's crew and their families. And have you checked out our games section over on VeteranLife.com?
