“The first US Army troops from the 82nd Airborne Division were expected to arrive late last night.
About 100 troops will find locations to set up tents and make other preparations for the arrival of roughly 800 personnel from the division today and a full brigade of some 3,500 by the end of the weekend.
They come on top of some 2,200 Marines, also due to arrive by Sunday or Monday.”
A full brigade from the 82nd being deployed to the island. Does this affect our national security?
I would assume they can set up some drop zones for C-17s to drop pallets of food and water. Cause it won’t be safe to transport the stuff via roads pretty shortly once those people reach the point of absolute rioting and fighting for survival. I hope our troops there will have adequate protection once this turns into mad max world. But I have a feeling maobama will leave them out to dry.
