went in this order; 38+strykers,2cargo trucks towing arty,33 humvee(hv) most w/ trailers, ambulance, 29+ strykers,6 hv's,4cargo trucks, 81+hv's w/ 3+ armored, 1 cargo truck towing fuel , 2 more hv's. Anyone know what the boxes built onto some of the hv's are for? some had trailers similar to the ones NBC kits are packed into. Not sure what these are for but BO just brought back 20000 troops for a response force in the US. hopefully this is their vehicles going to an armory but I somehow doubt it

@william0873 -- These were off loaded from ships at the Port of Seattle, Washington and are headed back to Yermo for storage and training use. I think a few of these Trains went east to some base in Colorado, while the rest went down to Yermo. In total over 845 vehicles came back to the U.S.

@misslydiaface Thank you. I have family in the military, always have, & I know they are just as serious. Nonetheless, your comment eases some anxiety...

@Ljungman42 I agree with you, these trains are filled with vehicles which can easily operate in urban environments to carry personnel into cites to control crowds. WE are the crowds.

This National Civilian Security Force was funded in the health care reform bill he pushed through they answer only to him, not congress. Also these vics are for the purpose of training our troops we no longer use soft tops in combat. We also use trains to transport equipment all the time, because it puts money back into the civilian sector.

Being in the military I can tell you if the government is planning an attack on the american people like some of you suggest, I can promise you it will not be our military who will be doing it. we have all taken a oath to protect you from foreign and DOMESTIC enemies and we take that oath very seriously. "We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."-Obama.

"Do you notice that the military equipement is no longer painted for desert warfare? They're now painted with digital-camo for city warfare So will you be seeing these vehicles in your neighborhood soon? I have no idea but all I can say is that you should prepare for the worst! Recently the Pentagon has announced they'll be training 20,000 uniformed troops inside the US within the next year to help state & local officials respond to a nuclear terrorist attack or other domestic catastropher "

Why are people so shocked that the military is using trains to transport?
