DC Troop Deployment

[explo72]

Several questions
First off I have never served, so looking for analysis by someone that has.
This comes from a source that claims to have the order of battle for the inauguration deployment. see below

Big question is why that huge deployment? 20,000+ and growing daily.
Is it to protect the inauguration? or to support rounding up the deep state, i.e. keep nobody from escaping?

Why is an F16 squadron part of the mix? 177th_Fighter_Wing
Why is a drone squadron part of the mix? 174th Attack Wing

I thought that the National Guard when deployed to DC was under the command of the White House.
Am I wrong about that? Has potential implications for second question above.

OK: That's a LOT of Troops
Greetings Me Droogs n Droogettes!
DiveMedic (whom I've had the pleasure of Meatspace with at Ye Olde Blogshoot) poasted a **** ton on intel that he's gathered (and that I'm stealing/utilizing here for me own analysis.) His website is HERE and I highly recommend his stuff. Now, he managed to get the Order of Battle for the current shenanigans going on in D.C vis-a-vis the Notional Guard and it's deployment

It's up to 20,000 troops right now

That's more than whats in Affy right now
That's a ****ton of armed mother****in' weekend warriors
His breakdown, stolen for the sake of 'quick use' for my view is this with my comments in parenthesis after from personal knowledge)

The entire Washington, DC national guard (Camp Guards when I was at Gitmo in 06)
56th Stryker Brigade Combat Team (Pennsylvania Bloody Buckets... lots of combat tours... 'heavy armor' if you consider Stryker trucks to be 'heavy')
Troop B of the 102nd Cavalry Regiment (negative info on them... wiki sez they're a No-Go at any real deployments.)
1-114th Infantry Regiment (Joisey Guard, No-Go no deployments)
508th Military Police Company (Another No-Go Joisey Unit)
229th Military Police Company (Kuwait Defense 1990, doubt if any of them are still there... a No-Go Virginia unit)
153rd Military Police Company (Delaware NG, A single tour in 07-08 in Iraq)
102nd Military Police Battalion (NY NG...a No-Go unit w/zero deployments)
104th Military Police Battalion (NY Guard, No-Go NY no deployments)
229th Brigade Engineer Battalion (Virginia Guard, lots of deployments, in a non-combat role)
160th Engineer Company (Delaware Guard, construction, couldn't find intel on deployments... thin k these are the guys doing the fencing/blockades)
261st Theater Tactical Signal Brigade (Command and Control unit, one tour at my old base Victory in Iraq in 08-09)
198th Expeditionary Signal Battalion (Delaware NG, VSAT and comms unit...one company in South Carolina which DID deploy once in 13-14 to Kandahar)
1049th Transportation Company (Aviation trans... couple here'n there... ass and trash)
262nd Component Repair Company (you break it, they fix it, No-Go on deployments... to me, this means they expect to need to repair **** right then and there as opposed to waiting til they get home)
108th Wing (Refueling and Air-Recon Unit, multiple deployments)
177th Fighter Wing. (Air to Air F-16 Air defense... what the **** do they need them for?)
105th Airlift Wing (Air Trans)
174th Attack Wing (Drones... lots and lots of drones... Predators, intel-gatherers... BAD juju)
166th Security Forces Squadron. (Security for the planes, lots of deployments)

OK... whew
Now, looking this over, 20K is a lot of folks
But not so much when realizing they have a ****ing Fighter Wing attached. That's a lot of support peeps that need to be there to support the F-16s Which begs the question, just what in the hell are they expecting?
Talking it over with Sapper, even if it's a 60-40 Shooters to Support (it never is, more like the opposite) That's still a ****ton of shooters

Newbie Shooters

Like "Never Deployed/Seen the 'Elephant'" Shooters

Which means "More than likely to **** the **** up"
Especially since I see pictures like this

THAT was standing in front of the Gin Hag Peloser for the photo-op.
Meal Team Six is on the job Madam Gin Hag!

Christ
I feel soooo much better about meselves now
I was thinking I was out of shape
Not anymore.

So, besides the ****ing Strykers (Bull**** tin cans... ask any TOW Gunner... they melt real good)
The one that has me slightly looking in concern is the 174th Attack wing... That's a Drone Unit
Those things are dangerous
Lots of Intel Capabilities
Whatever you do
Do Not Go ANYWHERE near D.C.
I mean those things?
Predators?
Fuuuuuuuuuuck that
Bad Bad BAD JuJu
Now, Other topics. Lots of Service and Support Units have had 'security training'. That's fine
BUT
The war(s) started in 2001
The majority of highly trained mother****ers are out and retired
That was literally 20 years ago.
So.........

that's just the intro, full article here: https://bigcountryexpatoriginal.blog...of-troops.html

Well, I served...twenty three years active duty...retired 1 Nov 1987. With all the changes that have taken place since then, personnel, policy, its difficult to even guess what the mission really is. My best suggestion...throw the chicken bones on the table and see what they tell you.

Set up for false flag is my gut feeling.

and then there's this...

new tally is 26,000+

DC is now in a veritable siege

Police vehicles sealed off a huge swath of downtown D.C. on Wednesday, causing immediate traffic snarls. Starting Wednesday, Bowser said, anyone inside the inauguration perimeter might be stopped and questioned. Starting Friday, all parking garages in the downtown restricted zone will be sealed through the inauguration. Bowser is asking D.C. residents to avoid the downtown area entirely, and the city announced that 13 Metro stations inside the security perimeter will shut down for several days.

"Closing hotels completely for these six nights is the only way to guarantee the safety of hotel workers, neighbors, vulnerable and unhoused residents, incoming administration officials, members of Congress, and our democracy," the statement said. "If hotels do not willingly close, we ask Mayor Bowser to extend today's emergency order and close all hotels in the city."

On Wednesday, Airbnb announced it was canceling all reservations in the Washington metro area.

I still can't make sense out of the why for all this.

If piglosi, shoemur or these other socialist traitors are a no show (flee), we might be getting our wish.
