Naw....I think they are just migrating on Luvie.

Babies finding their own way.

The Res is very close by & they most likely found less populated land.

Welcome to the Canteen, charlie72. You are so correct about “those in America who would gladly betray us all”. We do our best to make sure we only post information that the DoD has released for public consumption.

Thanks for stopping in.
