Well .. the rest of the gang who are already in the USA somewhere .. will likely try to complete their mission - and now we know why this installation was selected.
But .. I’m stunned to hear once again that a DEMOCRAT cannot keep their big mouth shut about America’s “secrets”. Can we say “treason”!!
It never was secret.
Giffords is engaging in hyperbole.
I didn’t want her elected but to give her a shred of credit she was a factor in keeping the west gate open when yet another ticket-punching staff weenie wanted to close it down to “save money”.
Ft. Huachuca isn’t (or wasn’t) widely known throughout the military because the MI Corps is a pretty small part of the overall force structure.
It’s unusually well know on FR due the litany of SV Herald articles posted here.
For a town not even large enough to be po-dunk, SV gets an unusually high number of rererences on this forum.
Fort Huachuca is just well off the beaten path...and trains a specialty (intelligence) that doesn't operate tanks or artillery.
As I recall, Huachuca was, for many years, the HQ for the Signal Corps.
"“Fort Huachuca is one of the best kept secrets in the military,” said Giffords as she sat next to Skelton during a question-and-answer session with the media after the pair finished listening to young intelligence analyst soldiers give a briefing on an exercise."
