SeaBees could have that wall up in no time at all!!!!
Seabee’s (I served as a Seabee EO back in my youth) starting at the west end, Army Corp of Engineers starting at the east end. Ready set GO!
>SeaBees could have that wall up in no time at all!!!!
Hell yeah they “Can Do”!
We build, we fight!!
“SeaBees could have that wall up in no time at all!!!!”
I’ve been telling folks all we need to do is start SeaBee teams at both ends and let them compete with each other to see who makes the most progress. I’ll bet people would be amazed.
We Build - We Fight!
An old Seabee here. I was on a C-130 crossing the Pacific. There were 4 of us travelling in our “utilities”. That was unheard of back then.
We went up to the flight deck and the pilot asked what branch we were in. We told him the Seabees. He said “Man, if we did a tenth of what you guys do we’d have medals all over our chests. I’ve flown into Vietnam and landed on an apron runway the Seabees had laid overnight. A month later I went back and they had built a damn city”.
Put 3 battalions on the border. Assuming there are still 600 or so to a battalion there would be almost 2,000 Bees building a wall. And every worker would be used. Start with the Engineering Aid. Builders to build the frame and poor the concrete after the Steel Workers had laid the cable. Construction Electrician to install the lighting. Utilities men to run all piping. Naturally it would all start with the Equipment Operators doing dirt prep.
Then add all the support folks like Corpsman and cooks. It would be like watching a bunch of bees building a hive.
Seabees Can Do!
Thanks for mentioning them.
