This raises the question...

WHY the 10th Mountain Military??

What is it about them that uniquely qualifies them for this mission?

The were in Iraq most recently assisting the Iraqi security forces - so they’ve had a lot of recent police type training. Most deployed unit in the US military over the past 20 years.

10th has done a lot of disaster relief.

Think about what can happen if the derps get more and more desperate.

Sabotage of all sorts having an impact on commerce and flow of goods.

Mission
Team Mountain – an integrated, multi-component, joint team of Soldiers, airmen, civilians, families, and regional partners – prepares globally responsive combat-ready forces; on order, rapidly deploys adaptive expeditionary units and executes unified land operations in support of the joint force to win in a complex world.

That sounds like just what we might need.
