June is Automotive Service Professionals Month
A Perfect Time to Thank the Pros that Keep Vehicles on the Road
LEESBURG, Va., June 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- With the summer driving season underway, the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) has designated June as Automotive Service Professionals Month (ASPM) to honor the vehicle service professionals from coast to coast who keep vehicles running smoothly and motorists on the road.
Automotive service professionals play a critical role in communities nationwide, working in general repair shops, dealerships and service stations. They help ensure that vehicles remain safe and reliable for everyday use. With modern vehicles becoming increasingly complex and equipped with cutting-edge technology, today's technicians must continually expand their knowledge and skills to keep pace with the latest advancements in automotive systems.
ASE makes it easy for car owners to identify technicians who meet high standards of skill and expertise. Those who earn ASE Certification and display the Blue Seal of Excellence have demonstrated both hands-on experience and success taking rigorous exams. To maintain their credentials, ASE Certified professionals must renew their certifications every five years, taking challenging exams to ensure they stay current with changing technologies and industry best practices.
"Automotive Service Professionals Month offers an opportunity to highlight the expertise and dedication of technicians and other vehicle service specialists," said Dave Johnson, ASE president and CEO. "ASE encourages everyone to take this opportunity to recognize and thank these skilled individuals for the vital services they provide each and every day."

Massive World War II bombs spark large-scale evacuation in Cologne
Three World War II bombs were found in Cologne, Germany. About 20 000 people were evacuated. Road and train lines were closed. Around 20 000 people were evacuated from central Cologne on Wednesday after three unexploded World War II bombs were found, the biggest such operation in the German city since the end of the war. Bomb squad technicians were planning to defuse the three American explosives, two weighing 1 000kg and one 500kg, which were found during building work on Monday in the Deutz area on the east bank of the River Rhine. Road and train lines were closed and city officials were going door to door to clear the evacuation zone of about 10 000m 2 which included three bridges over the Rhine. The heart of the city was left deserted, with a hospital, two old people's homes, nine schools, a TV studio and dozens of hotels affected. Building works in Germany have regularly unearthed unexploded World War II ordnance. READ | Germany arrests 3 Ukrainians trying to send explosive parcels by mail In Frankfurt, the discovery of a 1.4-tonne bomb in 2017 led to the removal of 65 000 people, the biggest such evacuation in Europe since 1945. In 2021 four people were injured when a World War II bomb exploded at a building site near Munich's main railway station, scattering debris over hundreds of metres. 'Everyone involved hopes that the defusing can be completed in the course of Wednesday. This is only possible if all those affected leave their homes or workplaces early and stay outside the evacuation area from the outset on that day,' the city authority said in a statement on Wednesday, appealing to residents to follow instructions, according to Reuters. The measures caused major disruptions to transport in and out of the city of over a million people, with Germany's national rail operator warning that many trains would be diverted or possibly cancelled.

UK Confronts Hard Reality of Rebuilding Its Military Prowess
Britain's ammunition production begins life in the ancestral town of George Washington. Hundreds of technicians and robots work around the clock to manufacture the empty shells that are then filled with explosives and fired from a range of artillery systems. The BAE Systems Plc plant in northeast England is operating 24/7 for the first time since the invasion of Iraq more than two decades ago. But the urgency of replenishing stocks of basic ordnance betrays just how far Britain's defense capabilities have fallen, and the scale of the task to restore them.
