  • Seconds after rolling in with the deep-blue waves, the Marines poured from their tanks and took their positions, keeping low and aiming their assault rifles toward their imaginary enemy.

    California's morning freeway traffic flowed by on the horizon, with drivers unaware of the drill that Marines said was crucial to maintaining their skills as a versatile force for combat missions and humanitarian operations.

    "I think they executed this superbly," McMillian said, smiling.

  • With the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq taking troops to landlocked regions, many of the Marines had never been on a ship — let alone stormed a beach — until the "Dawn Blitz" exercise, the largest of its kind on the West Coast since the Sept. 11 terror attacks. The two-week training drill ended with 5,000 Marines and sailors staging the mock invasion.

    The exercise came two days before the D-Day anniversary

  • This appears to be some type of medical unit. Not sure why they would be headed South on 101 - headed toward L.A. ??? There are several bases down that way but not sure why they'd be moving a medical unit.

  • i noticed the first hummer you drove by the guy was looking at you and he or his passenger did not have their helmets on

  • Well last night around 9:45 pm my time, I seen three semi's loaded with hummers and other military equipment. Which is odd since there is no non-guard base anywhere around here. But of course, people will just say, it is summer time, and they are training. Well this might be the case, however, I did see military equipment during the winter as well moving south and the hummers I saw then were Canadian military.

  • good post
