Joint federal military training exercises will take place within and around the Boston area between July 26th and August 5th. Military personnel will conduct training exercises to ensure the military’s ability to operate in urban environments, prepare forces for upcoming overseas deployments, and meet mandatory training certification requirements. Helicopters will be used in some exercises.

The Boston Police Department is working with military personnel to coordinate training sites that will minimize negative impacts on our Boston citizens and their daily routines. Safety precautions have been taken to prevent risk to the general public and the military personnel involved. With that, training site locations are not open to the public and will be guarded by uniformed personnel to provide additional safety.

Continued harassment?You don't get to choose what is and is not valid in this thread. This is a public forum and I determined that what I had to say was appropriate and germane to the conversation.
Sound familiar?

The Military gets serious about training when the need is clear. No high rises in Afghanistan. So far this has happened in six citys this year. Why not one?

Katrina. Everyone except USCG impotent. Honore arrives, order restored. Simplest, lowest cost solution, IMO.
