Regarding the map. Does anyone know what “ODG x 4, ODA x 8, etc.” and the other (acronyms?) stand for? Thanks.

I see no LEGITIMATE need for this “exercise” It should simply be cancelled.

Looks like a chess game. Position the pieces first.

Operational Detachment ‘G’; Operational Detachment ‘A’.
The x4 and x6 indicate the number of personnel in each detachment. AOB could Air/Aviation Operations Base. CJSOTF - um, Combined/Joint Special Operations Task Force.

Please keep in mind, this is just a guess based on reading some Tom Clancy novels...

I’ll let others see what they come up with.

The percentage who would follow orders are no match for the populace, even if comm is shut down.

If comm is shut down, how will the general person know anything is amiss? Moreover, how will we're dealing with a terrorist attack as an explanation be known to be a lie?

This is more in-your-face behavior from this admin, plain and simple. They are being unnecessarily provocative at the least, and they know that this is the case. Whether there is anything beyond this, who knows, but Bill Ayers certainly had some thoughts on what he'd like to see.

“Once I observed the map depicting ‘hostile,’ ‘permissive,’ and ‘uncertain’ states and locations, I was rather appalled that the hostile areas amazingly have a Republican majority, ‘cling to their guns and religion,’ and believe in the sanctity of the United States Constitution. When the federal government begins, even in practice, games or exercises, to consider any U.S. city or state in ‘hostile’ control and trying to retake it, the message becomes extremely calloused and suspicious.”

This,,,

Tom Clancy did his research, so I imagine you may be right on the money.

Right or wrong, thanks to you I can quit wondering about it:)

Moreover, how will “we’re dealing with a terrorist attack” as an explanation be known to be a lie?

And how will a soldier know that his raid target isn’t part of an “ISIS cell”, and that the whole effort is dishonest?

Exactly!
The orders for evil might come from respected, official channels of which the soldier has no reason to suspect. — To pull off a false-flag instigated mission, only a remarkably small set of knowledgeable actors is needed, the rest merely need to follow their training and contengency-plans.

They’re not smart enough to shut all comm down at once.

We’ll know something is amiss, sufficient to be on guard.

The shutdown would have the effect of limiting coordinated defense.

Cutting power and land phone would be 70% of the comms, bring in cell-jammers (or cut power to the towers as well) and that's 95%.
That's doable, and not exactly hard to coordinate.

We’ll know something is amiss, sufficient to be on guard.

Perhaps.

The shutdown would have the effect of limiting coordinated defense.

Not necessarily, military comms especially operates on self-supplied power (be it battery or generator) and a different portion of the EM spectrum.

They done screwed up! I promise you that Western half of CO will NOT be friendly. At all. It will be populated by gun and religion clingers, and grizzled mountain men who know the terrain and mountains better than anyone else.
