Army Conducts Nighttime Exercises In Downtown Chicago (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Following up on recent and unannounced training exercises in Florida and Washington state, the U.S. military is conducting a drill in Chicago.
 
The Windy City’s Office of Emergency Management and Communications (OEMC) told the Chicago Tribune on Tuesday it is providing support for “routine military training exercises,” including flying helicopters in the downtown area of the city at night.  “The training sites have been carefully selected to minimize the impact on the daily routine of residents,” the OEMC said in a statement released to the public.
 
This comes on the heels of other similar exercises carried out in American cities terrifying residents in Wahington state, Florida and Texas.  Why the military feels the need to so is unknown.  I dont know if this is normal or not.  While i dont remeber hearing of it in the past, i cant say I exactly kept track either.  Chicago is however one of the best cities to do this kind of thing if they are looking for realism.  People are shot and killed or wounded there everyday.  Maybe Detroit would be better..  -Mort

      This crap has to come to an immediate stop and never ever done again. I think we all know what this is and I for one am utterly disgusted with our military command structure. As a retired GI the thought that military commanders would agree with such a thinly veiled plan that puts both mil. and civ. people at risk sends shivers down my spine. What plan you may ask, why “riot control” what else? If this administration is planning something that they think will bring on riots and training for it then it’s time to terminate this administration. That means that Congress has to get it’s ass in gear and do the job to defend the Constitution by impeaching Obama and the whole administration if they could, but I’ll settle for Obama to start with.

      Hey NSA are you getting all this, you voyeuristic amoeba.

      If you think that this is JUST A NIGHTTIME EXERCISE then look again. You do not use civilian areas to train military troops unless you intend to attack civilians. Stop this and the use of Drones over American airspace.

      You show me a video of one unidentifiable helicopter flying over a city and expect me to believe this story? Several hospitals here have helicopters, and some of them look just like this one. Nonsense.

      Don’t get me wrong. This kind of stuff is kind of scary to think we need these exercises to train our military for some reason. But these types of drills are nothing new. They were done in the 1990s under Bill Clinton. The difference though then and now is back then they were announced way in advance and reported on by all the local, state and national media.

      Even though it creeps me out because this training could lead to misuse of our military on American Soil in a police state way I don’t think it stuff should be stopped or banned necessarily just announced. If we were invaded the American Military does need to know how to work here in the US.
