Other DoD media report only what the government says – only Stars and Stripes reports on military issues and events from an independent perspective, relying on multiple sources, not just the command’s point of view. Stars and Stripes reports from a “boots on the ground” perspective in over a dozen countries, from Europe to southwest Asia to the Far East.
