A source I consider reputable sent me an email a few days ago, but for which I do not have a link:

Russian paratroopers will meet up with American forces May 24-31 for military exercise at Colorado’s Fort Carson.

· The purpose of the joint training is to practice airborne tactics and anti-terror operations, such as dropping into a hostile area and conducting a “terrorist camp raid.”

· They will use US weaponry and equipment.

· This comes at a time when Russia has troops working in cooperation with China where a joint naval drill in the Yellow Sea is currently underway.

· With 25 vessels and 13 aircraft, it is reportedly one of the largest Russian-China drills in recent history.

Just did a google:
Here is a link from a not-so-great source:

Oh... it’s only 22? I had heard thousands (up to 120K!). We can take ‘em, Red Dawn Part II. :0)

I was looking for links about this the other day too, and went down the rabbit hole into the “One World Airport Authority” plaque in the Denver airport... Apparently no such agency exists.
