What could they possibly have been training for???

There is a rather large abandoned hotel in that area....if I were to want to have a bunch of urban training, that's where I would.

In the movies, they always say that the fight with the Decepticons was a “training exercise”.

Tier 1 is Tier 1 for a reason.

In a military range you can only hit so many MOUT sites, shoot in so many shoot houses and never get the full spectrum of a real mission. This kind of urban training allows the best to stay that way.

Which is why they always have the good loot in housing blocks, the bastards.

I like finding the random MRO or Eotech in a shack in the middle of nowhere. Also and mounting it in seconds without any firing to POA ;)

Can't say that I blame them, crap like that going on with no notice given to those most affected?? BS...

Had I not been notified I probably would have been armed up and standing on my property line waiting for some idiot to come running through....
 
I like helicopters a lot. Practicing for their version of hotel Mumbai?
I hope those troops don't get sick from being inside that building, vacant since 2007, full of trespassers,
mold and other nasty stuff growing inside no heat or a/c.

It's nice that our military is practicing urban assault techniques in our neighborhoods. Don't you think? :rolleyes:

I can't even believe you said that. At no time in the history of the world have a Gov used its own military against its own people. Plus we are so much more intelligent and sophisticated than any people that ever to walk this earth. So therefore this could never happen here.

Sir, whatever are you implying that I implyed? :rolleyes:
Doesn't matter. Blue helmets are currently training on our soil anyway, so our local boys don't have to deal with turning on their own. At least the targets will be easy to identify.

Lowes has some cheap blue paint that matches. I use it on steel so the 10" disk shows up nice and clear at 200yds.

Well...….…...they ALMOST apologized:

Hall also said that he made the decision to approve the Army's request to conduct the exercise but said, "the exercise turned out to be louder and more disruptive to the nearby neighborhood than the City anticipated given our understanding of the proposed conditions."

Hall said upon review, he "would not approve an exercise of this scale and disruption adjacent to a neighborhood in the future."

Delta used to charter cruise ships & airliners to practice their craft on. Was a great detail to send the shitbirds on. Simunitions hurt. Who knew? Lol!

I doubt they were up to anything sinister. Just rehearsing any number of possible scenarios.
