I think the major parts of this exercise will be "seaport preparation", and "forward airfield construction".

Saudi still has the best airbase. Way out in the middle of nowhere.

 

Prince Sultan Air Base
Al Kharj, Saudi Arabia
24°03'48"N 47°34'50"E

Saddam fears nothing. For those too young to remember, we bluffed him to high heaven before Desert Storm, and he bit on nothing, nada, nill. The moron allowed his highly touted, yet dismally performing troops to be overcome by a far superior US army. Now we gotta do it all over again.

Yes. And nice pix. We have been upgrading that base for a long time, all the latest gear. Too bad we will have to destroy it soon.
