    I'm thinking someone should organize a zombie crawl at Park Meadows...

    These exercises are so predictable, as the participants are notified in advance what type of "attack" they're going to be responding to. Nothing like a good zombie apocalypse to shake things up a little...

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    This is false... the only training exercise going on that day was a USAF routine training mission out of the NE US. These go on almost weekly, especially back then. There is FAA/USAF audio where the FAA agent was informing an AF Officer about the hijackings and he asked "Is this exercise or real world?"
    There is no truth to any form of anti-terror exercises going on during 9/11/01.

    Nah. I'm between 660 (with all the windows) and the smokestack. Can't see it from your vantage - not high enough I guess. Been quiet so far today though.

    The last one I was involved in several years ago wasn't. We knew who was involved and the approximate area it would occur in. It was pretty fun in the beginning, but then became a admin exercise without much to do.

    Ours began with a two car accident (they had two vehicles upside down on the roadway) and one was leaking a gasious substance (the reenactors were lying on the ground around the vehicle and a smoke bomb was being used to generate smoke) and the exercise developed from there to evacuation of buildings downwind (all government buildings) to a possible active shooter. It was well thought out to include law enforcement, fire, hazmat, public works, special ops, etc.

    A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'

    That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

    I have been listening to the amateur radio traffic on two frequencies. One is for Douglas County and the other is for the Salvation Army. The Douglas County traffic was interesting regarding missing children and how many simulated injuries. They kept repeating that this is exercise traffic.
