Guerrilla war exercise to be fought across rural North Carolina counties, Army warns
The Charlotte Observer ^ | 1/10/22 | Mark Price

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A “realistic” guerrilla war will be fought across two dozen North Carolina counties in the coming weeks, with young soldiers battling seasoned “freedom fighters,” according to the U.S. Army.

The two-week “unconventional warfare exercise” will be staged Jan. 22-Feb. 4 on privately owned land. And it will be realistic enough to include the sounds of gunfire (blanks) and flares, the U.S. Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School said in a news release.

Exact times, locations and exercise specifics were not provided.

However, advance publicity is intended to make sure civilians — including law enforcement officers — don’t mistake the fighting for terrorism or criminal activity, which has happened in the past.

“Residents may hear blank gunfire and see occasional flares. Controls are in place to ensure there is no risk to persons or property,” the warfare center said.

“CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A “realistic” guerrilla war will be fought across two dozen North Carolina counties in the coming weeks, with young soldiers battling seasoned “freedom fighters,” according to the U.S. Army.”

So the troops are now being conditioned to kill Americans like the FBI and ATF did with the ‘No Hesitation’ training?

Just getting our uninformed and facts-starved patriots in the Army used to shooting Americans they are ‘told’ are terrorists. Nothing to see here. /s

Guerillas have a pretty good track record against the U.S. Army.

I ain't worried.

They had two years to find Eric Rudolph in there and failed. He was caught mainly because he went into town.

To me it sounds like the Biden administration wanting to be able wage war against Americans who don’t vote for Democrats.

That would be consistent with the divisive and insane comments he and Harris made about January 6th where they essentially said anyone who opposes them is a terrorist or the enemy.

Good point.

And many “guerillas” in the continental USA will have been trained by THEM - thus know how to kill them.

Shush to all the Nancy’s.

Nor everything is “ chicken little”.

Huh? Seriously, this is ominous nonsense. Who are these “guerrillas”? Why is the woke military conducting exercises against them?

Fighting in the forests is one thing. However civil wars are also fought in the homes against the families. Does the Army have a plan for that? Civil wars are nasty brutal conscienceless affairs. Only a fool or psychopath would want one.

Will those “freedom fighters” be told to wear MAGA hats?
Just curious.

They have done this with SF since the 60s. Locals get to play roles also. Nothing new.
