Thank you. And now, did anyone else besides me hear that there are elements of the 82nd (and 101st?) in on the Airport seizure?

I'm searching the DoD website...nothing on upcoming briefs from CentComm

I hadn't heard that but that is just the kind of operation they would be expected to do. Airborne divisions always want to sieze the airports.

Speaking of airports I haven't heard anyone make note of the fact that if we have a fight for the city it will be extremely helicopter intensive. Having a good base to operate out of will be essential for them to avoid some of the operational problems they have experiened thus far.
