Thanks for the ping!
I suspect this will be a training unit - but I could be all wrong.
We've already had at least one unit from SC here training for SWA duty. They perform border surveillance to kill two birds with one stone; the border mission closely parallels what they do in SWA.
I'm sorry, Mike - I didn't address the quote in my last post.
Mrs. HJ had jury duty last year in a trial of two people accused of human smuggling and running a drop-house. UAV video and operator logs were used as evidence against the defendants, and were instrumental in returning a guilty verdict.
For now, that's the correlation between Predators and controlling the border.
