Troops Headed for California
Hello All,
I have personally witnessed a large number of troops building up and driving with humvees near Camp Pendleton on public streets. Then I saw this article: http://www.thedailyobserver.ca/Artic...aspx?e=2185303 I'm curious if anyone can confirm if this is a "normal" training exercise or if this seems suspicious. Thanks, sjkted |

Hmm.
Wonder if Chris Story has any new updates on settlements and how lack of paying them could result in China exerting their hand. |

Re: Troops Headed for California
I will go ahead a squash all the fears you guys have. California is gonna be a
major training ground for troops this summer. The California desert is a great match for troops deploying overseas because of its hot desert like conditions. The build up your seeing is the gear up for the summer rush in training. I know this because several of my freinds are going out there to train. |

Yea it's not out of the ordinary for this to happen especially near military
installations. Considering the major training that will be going on in California i wouldn't be surprised if you see allot more activity. Training in civilian areas near military installations does happen, unless you see them out stopping people and setting up checkpoints i wouldn't be worried. |

Re: Troops Headed for California
I'll answer this one, I've been out of the military over 20 years, I was in the air force stationed in nevada, My job had me going off base alot to other installations, at the time I was current duty my high school buddy joined the marines at the same time and I went to Camp Pendelton for a few weekend visits . That base is 25 miles long so to see anybody off base, no worries, I did it all the time at my base.
