BREAKING: Marine Battalion ordered back to base, leave canceled, PLACED ON ALERT (trunc)
Semper Fi News ^ | 9/23/2016 | Thomas Dillingham

Posted on 09/23/2016 11:15:43 AM PDT by lafroste

We have just received information that a certain Marine Corps INFANTRY BATTALION currently stationed at Camp LeJeune, North Carolina has been placed in an ALERT STATUS. All leave has been cancelled for the unit, and all Marines have been ordered back to base immediately!

Camp Lejeune

Camp Lejeune is located only a few hours away, by HUMVEE, from Charlotte, North Carolina. We are unable to confirm if this is related to the Insurrection in Charlotte. However, this is the closest location of US Military Troops to Charlotte. We will continue to bring your the latest news as it develops.

Also, we have learned that President Obama is planning to address the crisis in the next few days. We will update this article as information comes available.

HUMVEE with Machine Gun mounts headed for Charlotte >>>

I hadn’t thought of that. Thanks.

I am thinking the readiness is more for the use of mustard gas in Iraq.

Going to Syria

Bet they'll be parked on a ship ready to provide force protection if the troops already there get in a jam.

Classic Obama - keep them aboard ship for use in case of emergency and not at a base in Iraq so he can say the boots are "not on the ground."

Charlotte is much quieter than 2 nights ago - amazing what a few NG units and state cops will do to inner city snowflakes. They’re all for rioting when they can grab stuff, burn stuff or beat people unlike themselves - with no apparent consequences. But when consequences show up, they melt away like the snowflakes they are.

I believe that this alert, assuming it is true, is more about keeping military personnel away from Charlotte. I would expect something similar from Ft. Bragg.

OTOH, having military forces put on alert with what’s going on in Syria has me a bit worried. Bamy and Clinton have been quite cavalier in their attitude toward using military force, believing that it has no consequences. Well, against Achmed and the Camel Corp, that may be true. But up against Ivan...not so much.

I hope and pray that this is a bogus report, or that it has to do with keeping Marines away from rioting. If it has to do with Syria (or any other overseas location), then we may be witnessing the beginning of a massive distraction to shift/postpone/cancel the Election.

It is a direct violation of law to use an active duty unit against a US population

Is Obama crossing the Rubicon?

Deployment to Syria?

As a former Marine who was stationed at Camp Lejeune my guess would be Syria.

Here’s an idea: let’s all post whatever we hear about ship and aircraft movements also. </s> Anyway, this story is silly. A couple hundred Soros lackies can be disbursed by a few fire hoses and do not require the active federal military. Actually, just show them bars of soap and barber clippers and they’d probably run for their lives.

Syria is a likely concern, but no way that Assad will invite them in, and no way Putin will agree.

So, staging in Jordan is a possibility, but it’s more likely to be carrier task force off shore.

There is always a Marine battalion on standby in case of a foreign emergency.

It doesn’t mater whether it’s Army, Navy, Marines...

Although the Navy and Marine Corps are not included in the act, they were made subject to it by DoD Regulation (32 C.F.R. Section 213.2, 1992)

An overseas deployment seems more likely if the article is real...

"If Obama sends his Marines to Charlotte, whose side do you think they’ll be fighting on?

The sworn oath to protect and defend the Constitution is meaningless while the Usurper Obama is in office.

Never understood as to why the police instead of looking all military , instead invest in water cannon trucks like in Europe. As the temps goes down the last thing you want is to be doused with water.

There are three riots - uh - demonstrations planned for Atlanta tonight. More likely to have some big problems there. The national guard is already in Charlotte.
