Interesting tweet and photo from Pompeo.

Is he referring to Mexico, China, and Amazon (the business)? What would Himalays imply? Who is the "unseen enemy"?

"Promises Made, Promises Kept: our first and most important mission set is to help Americans abroad. From Machu Picchu to the Himalayas, from the Amazon to the Gobi Desert, we took care of our people even as we supported our partners around the world. #NotTiredOfWinning"

For those who havn't followed Monkey Werx (where we pick up a lot of plane info) or others or know what the Osprey is

MV-22 Osprey

"Services: USMC Power Plant: 2x Rolls Royce-Allison AE1107C turbo shaft engines Speed: 277 mph Armament: 1x M2 .50 Cal machine gun Range: 500 nm Payload: 24 troops Crew: Four (pilot, copilot and two flight engineers)"

"The MV-22 Osprey is the primary assault support aircraft for the U.S. Marine Corps. It was fielded to replace the CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter and has been deployed to support troops in combat since 2007."

Yeah, that's some USMS business going on there...
