What is your basis for asking?

I guess this explains the near-constant presence of protestors on the road just outside the main entrance to the 174th TFW.

Weather today turned ugly here this afternoon, with a mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain.

Thanks Behind Liberal Lines.
Officials at the 174th Attack Wing suspended all Reaper drone flights in Central New York Tuesday after one of the unmanned aircraft crashed into Lake Ontario about 12 miles from the eastern shore during a routine training flight.
Operation "Divin' Duck" has been a complete success.

Headline is funny. “Military drones grounded ... after crash”.

Unless the drone crashed into a cloud, it hit the “ground”, i.e. was “grounded”.

Ain’t the English language great to play with?
