It's Fleet Week starting today. Events planned for all over the country. Did a google search. This is only one of the articles I found. Fleet Week, elevated alert, coincidence?

Included in the article:

Eighteen ships from five countries are expected in New York harbor on Wednesday for the city's 16th annual Fleet Week observance _ a lineup thinned out this year by war assignments, Navy officers said.

(snip, snip)

Sailors and Marines will march in uniform in 11 Memorial Day parades in all five boroughs.

Foreign entries are the Canadian frigate HMCS Charlottetown, the British Antarctic icebreaker HMS Endurance and two tall ships _ Mexico's 297-foot naval training ship Cuauhtomoc and India's 165-foot naval ship Tarangini, which is on a round-the-world cruise.

Now, do we worry about the cargo on any of these? Particularly the ones from Mexico and India?

Very interesting. This may explain the reference to coastline and beeches.
