doubtful. if we get any forces on the ground it'll be spec ops green beret types. but i imagine we will not be doing any of that.


I'd bet good money they're sitting on the carriers just itching to go.

That's not everywhere. Cant recall where it is specifically but it is logical to not make yourself more of a target in a volatile situation overseas


Not overseas. The base is in an SEC school state. Hoping it's out of an abundance of caution rather than a specific credible threat. They're limiting base access to base personnel or certain limited business as well. Don't think casual shopping at the PX is going to be a thing for a while.

Edit - reread text and they can wear their uniforms for the commute to/from the base but cannot wear it for any stops along the way - no picking up the kids from school, gas fill ups, etc.

Haven't seen anything about off base uniform requirements but seeing multiple reports from various bases suspending the trusted traveler program.

Possible friendly fire incident has taken down an F-15 over Kuwait.

Did the pilot eject?

If accurate, pilot appears to be relatively ok.

Don't think there are any single seaters there, so hopefully there's another guy ok. Tough to say but to me it looks like our dark grey paint scheme not Israel's desert camo

No one has the expeditionary capacity to invade Iran, even us.


You are very wrong.

We could, but I suspect we don't want the level of forces necessary to be tied down there at the moment.

More video from the attack on the US embassy in Karachi.
Clearly shows one of the protestors firing.

Three, wtf?

Glad all 6 are safe but what the hell happened here? Did a Kuwaiti patriot crew or something get trigger happy?

Kuwaitis have fessed up…one of their patriot batteries was trigger happy.

Kuwait has shot down more US aircraft than Iran.

Unbelievable, thx. I just saw that too.

And the ME3 may in fact join in on the action kinetically but they just are unreliable military partners, I guess that just goes to show. They have impressive air capabilities on paper, but I don't think they integrate well from a joint operational perspective.


Qatar Energy just halted production after attacks (natural gas I think).

They don't, but as Churchill said, the only thing worse than working with Allies is not having any.
