Sand, can you confirm the Nashville exercise? If you have a link, I’d be grateful.
Beck had this covered back in July when they were doing training in St. Louis. An excerpt - but much more info. at the link.
In the segment, Beck notes that The Blaze TV staff contacted former army Lieutenant General Jerry Boykin to see just how routine this sort of training was. Lt. Gen. Boykin said it was bizarre and that, generally, trainings conducted in cities kept a low profile and didn’t interrupt daily activities.
