Good points but it doesn’t really explain it all away, particularly the military exercises.
“Good points but it doesn’t really explain it all away, particularly the military exercises.”
We’ve had more than the usual low-level flyovers here around Richmond, VA. Mostly choppers. It’s both annoying and suspicious.
The military exercises aren’t that unusual either. If you look up archive news stories for ‘operation urban warrior’ you will see these type of exercises taking place pretty regularly from the mid 90s through now. It is practice moving through urban areas that they can’t get on the practice range. I believe these really picked up after the Black Hawk Down incident when we saw a big gap in urban warfare knowledge.
