I think it gets the classification of “Military Style” due to the fact that communications were cut first.

Could we classify the police presence in Boston earlier this year as a military style occupation?

Hm, you might be right.

Hm, perhaps. I'd have no qualms calling it a military-style operation, but occupation implies a taking/holding which didn't clearly happen.
