U.S. Disaster/Food Crisis 2022: Oklahoma Militia fights 702-Fire, no more Beef Cattle?

Image

“It’s burning up in these canyons deep, burning out over the bowls and spreading out…. …. We’re unable to get our trucks and units down into the fire so. Basically, the only way is only with dozers and air support is the only way we’ll be able to get this knocked down.”-Jim Shelton, Blaine County Emergency Management 

This year’s fire season doesn’t seem as profuse as previous years.  Don’t tell that to people in Oklahoma, already more than 8-thousand acres (3237 hectares) have burned since 14JUL2022.

KOCO report from 15JUL2022, points out that the fire is negatively affecting a major food source:

On 16JUL2022, more than 30 personnel from the 850th Military Police Battalion deployed to help fill more than 5-thousand sandbags.  Then, the next day (17JUL2022), approximately 60 additional personnel of the Arizona National Guard deployed to the Coconino County Public Works Department, to help fill as many as 600-thousand sandbags before the end of the week.

This is due to monsoon flooding, which caused ‘shelter-in-place’ orders to be issued to some of the residents of areas that had been devastated by wildfires in recent years, the burn areas now become zones of large flash flooding during the monsoon season.

On 15JUL2022, administrators of Coconino County asked for help from the National Guard.  It turns out that many of the militia personnel were already taking part in their ‘summer camp’ training, just 25 miles away, and some of them actually live in Coconino County:  “We just pivoted those soldiers over there and re-directed them to the Coconino Public Works building… …There are some who are from this area. That is what’s beautiful about it. We are part of the community in which we serve.”-Major Kyle Key, Arizona Army National Guard

World War 3: Idaho S-T-E-M preps grade schoolers for future war

“Summer is the time the program has given us to step outside our normal curriculum and experiment to try out new areas of STEM and develop new lessons we can then possibly submit to our national program for youth and other Starbase programs across the nation. Our Starbase staff were really excited about developing this new program and we hope to continue the curriculum into future summer camps and possibly the normal academic year.”-Courtney Taylor, Idaho Starbase director

During the months of June and July, 2022, fewer than 2-hundred 5th grade students in Idaho took part in an Idaho National Guard STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) Summer Camp program, called Starbase (STARBASE A Department of Defense Youth Program).  It is not the first time, but this year demand for such a program was high enough that the normal one camp was expanded into eight separate camps, and three new unique/specialized programs were tried-out.

The Starbase camp is for children of members of the Idaho state militia.  Military based STEM camps began in 2018, under the federal Department of Education’s (DoE) Title 1, however, according to the Idaho National Guard the federal Department of Defense (DoD) is actually providing the funding for the state militia operated STEM camps and after-school programs.

Military based STEM camps are also for children of migrant farm workers, under the federal DoE’s Migrant Education Program.  It appears that the DoD’s Starbase STEM camps are exclusively for children of National Guard personnel, and children of migrant workers!

For June 2022, Idaho’s Starbase introduced three new categories for its Summer camp; identifying weapons of mass destruction (WMD) under the guise of CSI (Crime Scene Investigation), Space-Force training under the guise of Mission to Mars, and survival training under the guise of search and rescue. Students were part of other programs such as the Caldwell Migrant Summer School Program,  the Idaho Wing of the Civil Air Patrol, the Learning Garden Children’s Center in Meridian, and four different regions of the YMCA (Christian organization founded in the United Kingdom, based in Switzerland).

For July 2022, Starbase Idaho wrapped-up the season by introducing 3rd through 6th grade students to Idaho Army National Guard armored vehicles.

For years, the hi-tech industry in Idaho has worked with the military to educate grade school aged children in the ways of STEM.  Boise based computer chip maker Micron has its own STEM bus which makes visits to military bases. (just a week ago, Micron warned of continuing chip shortages, but this time due to crashing demand caused by inflation)

Cold War Helicopters: Dragon crashes into Antarctic Ocean

Video

During the United States’ Operation Highjump (aka Project Highjump), in 1946-47, a Sikorsky HO3S-1 helicopter (called Dragonfly by the British) crashed into the Antarctic Ocean (aka Southern Ocean).

The silent color film, by U.S. Army Private E. Zinberg, dated 19JAN1947, shows the Dragonfly approaching USS Pine Island (AV-12), the film cuts out for a second then shows the Sikorsky diving into the water. The pilot, and the observer, are rescued:

There is an attempt to salvage the helicopter, but the order is given to let the Dragonfly go:

This crash happened about a week after the rescue of the crew, and passenger, of a U.S. Navy PBM-5 Mariner, code named George 1, which had been missing since 30DEC1946.  The search was frantic, not just because nobody knew what happened, but the commanding officer of the USS Pine Island was onboard the missing seaplane.  The crew and VIP (very important person) passenger that survived (three crewmembers died) the crash of George 1, were rescued on 12JAN1947.

According to Peter J. Anderson, who worked for the Office of Polar Programs-National Science Foundation, a total of seven helicopters were used during Operation Highjump.  On 19JAN1947, H03S-1 helicopter (Bureau Number [BuNo] 57996) was sent to find pack-ice that could launch aircraft for a photographic mission, ordered by Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd.  The HO3S-1 returned early due to icing of the rotary wings.  Ironically, just feet from the deck of USS Pine Island, the icing suddenly became worse causing to HO3S-1 to drop straight into the ocean.  Just three days later, a second HO3S-1 was lost.  BuNo 579997 was launched from the aircraft carrier USS Philippine Sea, it was hit by a downdraft and shoved into the ocean, the crew was rescued.

The two HO3S-1 helicopters were two of the four aircraft lost during Operation Highjump.

U.S. Food Crisis: Kentucky Militia deployed for Water Shortage, “Bad went to worse!”

“We can live without electricity, we can live without the Internet. One thing you definitely can’t live without is water. And it becomes something that we sometimes take for granted.”-Adam Ledford, City of Marion

Beginning 24JUN2022, personnel with Kentucky Army National Guard’s 2061st Multi-Role Bridge Company, as well as the 206th Engineer Battalion, 201st Engineer Battalion, and 103rd Chemical Battalion, have been working to bring potable water to the town of Marion.

Kentucky Army National Guard photo by Sergeant First Class Benjamin Crane, 01JUL2022.

Side note: Despite what dictionaries/word-smiths say is the source of the word potable, people should pronounce potable as pot-able (or pot-a-bul), as in the water is able to be used in a pot for cooking/drinking. Non-potable, of course, is water that is not able to be used in a pot for cooking/drinking.

On 22JUN2022, it was reported that administrators in Crittenden County were scrambling to solve a water shortage problem caused by attempts by City of Marion administrators to drain Lake George.

Lake George was the primary water source for Marion, but in April erosion in the lake’s levee suddenly developed into a sink-hole.  An attempt was made to drain the Lake George, to prevent total failure of the levee and a resulting massive flood of the town.  At first the standard way of draining was not making good progress, so they decided to breech the levee on purpose.

Observing Old City Lake. Kentucky Army National Guard photo by Sergeant First Class Benjamin Crane, 01JUL2022.

Marion officials had ordered water collection to be switched to the smaller City Lake (aka Old City Lake, which looks more like a big pond), thinking it held one month’s worth of water, and that surely would be enough, but whoopsie, turns out City Lake held only 18-days worth!  Apparently what was negatively affecting Lake George is also affecting nearby lakes: “Throughout that process, we were able to begin to put together the picture that it looked like what was causing the issue had something to do with our intake system and damage to our intake system that runs underneath the levee and into the bottom of the lake. Bad went to worse, we lost over a week’s water supply just because of new data that was developed on our secondary source, which had now become our primary source. So, in essence, you can argue that we lost not only one water supply, but quite honestly, we lost two-plus water supplies in this process.”-Adam Ledford, City of Marion

There are several options for the City of Marion; rely on other cities and other counties for water, which will greatly jack-up water costs for Marion residents.  Or, have the Governor call in the National Guard and make emergency taxpayer funded water deliveries until a long term solution proves viable.

Kentucky Army National Guard photo by Sergeant First Class Benjamin Crane, 01JUL2022.

Governor Andy Beshear declared a state of emergency and initially deployed approximately 20 Army National Guard Combat Engineers.

WSIL video report, three days of potable water left as of 06JUL2022, multiple new leaks:

On 07JUL2022, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announced it will attempt to connect Marion with water from the Crittenden-Livingston Water District.  Also, Webster County Water has been suppling water, and, Marion officials approved a plan to build a three miles long system to connect to the Caldwell County Water District in Princeton.  However, all these expensive water connections to other systems will supply only half of the City of Marion’s water needs. Additional efforts are being attempted.

The City of Marion is a rural city with a population of about 3-thousand.

On 27FEB2014, a public demonstration was made of a new technology that supposedly would make human pilots for helicopters a thing of the past.  Over U.S. Marine Corps Base Quantico, in Virginia, a Boeing AH/MH-6 (aka MD 500) combat (yes, the MD500 is mainly a combat ‘copter, not cargo) rotary wing was supposedly flown by AACUS, a system of software and sensors, which purportedly could be applied to any existing helicopter.

“This is a Navy-Marine Corps team project. We’ve taken a landing system that can autonomously land an unmanned helicopter or aircraft into a very dangerous landing zone, potentially with the touch of a tablet. This is an expeditionary type of capability and there was no better place to test it than Quantico.”-Rear Admiral Matt Klunder

Then on 20MAR2014, over Marine Corps Base Quantico, a Kaman K-Max cargo helicopter was also flown by AACUS, mounted on the belly between the main landing gear.

According to the U.S. Navy/Marine Corps (USN/USMC), as of April 2014, AACUS had  cost taxpayers $98-million, since the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Innovative Naval Prototype program was started in 2012.

Between February 2017 and November 2017, more public demonstrations, this time with a Viet Nam era Bell UH-1H ‘Huey’, and this time they were really talking-up AACUS: “This is more than just an unmanned helicopter. AACUS is an autonomy kit that can be placed on any rotary-wing platform and provide it with an autonomous capability. Imagine a Marine Corps unit deployed in a remote location, in rough terrain, needing ammunition, water, batteries or even blood. With AACUS, an unmanned helicopter takes the supplies from the base, picks out the optimal route and best landing site closest to the warfighters, lands, and returns to base once the resupply is complete, all with the single touch of a handheld tablet.”-Walter Jones, Executive Director of ONR

USMC dramatic music video explainer,  by Sergeant Laiqa Hitt, 13DEC20217:

It was also revealed that AACUS is a technology that is part of the Department of Defense’s Force 2025, a modernization program started in 1995 and based on hypotheticals of what future warfare my require.  Each branch of the DoD has their own term for it, the USMC calls theirs Marine Corps Force 2025, and for fiscal year 2017 they claimed that Phase II of Force 2025 was “way ahead”.

Integrated Training Exercise 3-18 (in May 2018) is considered the first time an AACUS flown rotary wing aircraft flew, and delivered cargo, during a wargame.

Not much has been reported about AACUS since 2018, but in 2021, Vertical Magazine revealed that wildfire fighting contractor Columbia Helicopters was working with Aurora Flight Systems to apply AACUS to be able to conduct aerial fire fighting at night.

On 10JAN2022, Aurora Flight Sciences revealed they were working on an upgraded AACUS which will use ‘detect & avoid’ systems to prevent midair collisions, and a ‘GPS-Denied’ system (All Source Position, Navigation, and Timing, aka ASPNT) to allow robot aircraft to fly where GPS is not available.

Aurora Flight Sciences is a subsidiary of Boeing, they are also involved with programs to integrate humans and robots, and developing anti-drone systems.

In June 2022, the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (aka CAL FIRE) made the first, ever in the U.S., series of night time water bombings on a wildfire called the Electra Fire. The Sikorsky S70i Fire Hawk was modified by United Rotorcraft, there was no indication what type of night flying system was being used.

“Oppressive” Gun Ban Fail: Politician sniped from above in Japan?

Video

“No one shall possess a firearm or firearms or a sword or swords.”-Japanese law, however, after a long permitting procedure a person can own a single-fire gun designed for hunting or sport-shooting (you must first own a shotgun for ten years without incident before owning a rifle)

In 1992, the U.S. Department of Justice republished an article calling Japan’s anti-gun laws “Oppressive”, and that “Japan’s strict gun-control laws are unfair and oppressive; although some people assert that Japan’s low crime rate is due to gun control, it is actually due to Japan’s culture.”

In the past few years, I’ve posted many examples of how Japan’s anti-gun and anti-knife laws are massive failures. On 08JUL2022, former Prime Minister Abe Shinzo (in Japan the family name comes first, then the ‘given’ name) was shot twice in the neck during a Liberal Democratic Party political campaign event, he died about four hours later in the Nara Medical University.

Japan’s official government sponsored television broadcaster NHK (Nippon Hōsō Kyōkai, Japan Broadcasting Corporation), says police believe the gun was homemade.  The alleged shooter has been arrested, and has served three years with the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force.

At a press conference doctors revealed that Abe Shinzo was probably killed instantly, claims that he was shot in the neck with the bullets ending up in the heart (sniper attack from above?), admit that despite invasive surgery they could not find any bullets:

U.S. Food Crisis: Walmart Feeds for Freedom? The military chows down on the real Hunger Games!

Incomplete (tip-o-the iceberg) list of main stream news links announcing United States food supply shutdowns, emergencies, outbreaks and recalls for June 2022:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is investigating a mysterious outbreak of E. coli O157:H7 infections, and for some unknown reason the FDA is refusing to name the infected foods!

Protein/energy bars recalled due to E.coli infestation.

Wegmans grocery chain store recalls Vidalia onions due to Listeria infestation.

Cheese sold across nine states recalled due to Listeria infestation.

As of 29JUN2022, a total of 23 cases of listeriosis, a bacterial infection usually caused by eating food contaminated with listeria, were recorded in 10 states, causing 22 hospitalizations and one death.

U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns against ‘snuggling’ your poultry, due to salmonella infestation.

Dog food recalled due to salmonella infestation.

Is there a salmonella epidemic?

After 40-million dead birds, hot weather might be killing off the bird flu virus.
.

Hi-tech indoor farming might cause food prices to go up, certainly too expensive for most mom-n-pop start-ups.

Long explanation how food crisis is second biggest factor behind price inflation (housing is number one). Food price inflation directly linked to fertilizer shortage caused by sanctions and war, yet as a result fertilizer is being stockpiled (farming ops are buying more than what they need out of fear) which will have a long term effect of fertilizer price drops, reducing food prices:

International food analysts (this leftist-liberal report loves to call them ‘experts’) say the food crisis is actually about “…access to food, that people don’t have money to pay for food, that people are jobless.” It is not about a lack of food (I’ve already posted about migrant farm workers in Idaho that say the same thing):

On 15JUN2022, Walmart conducted their yearly Feed ’em for Freedom food fest, on Camp Atterbury, for state National Guard personnel, and their families.  Never mind that taxpayers already pay for the meals of military personnel, Walmart probably gets a tax write-off for providing a free BBQ for them. Is this a covert way for the Department of Defense to save money, by preparing state militia to rely on private sector donations for their meals?

VIRGINIA: On Fort Lee, the USDA kicked off its 13th annual Feds Feed Families (FFF) campaign.  This means that for the past 13 years federal employees are being encouraged to donate food to silly-vilians, I mean civilians who are going hungry. Isn’t that a sign the country’s economy sucks? After all, a federal job is considered the best paying entry level job now, and I remember when being a federal employee meant you got less than private sector minimum wage (because I was one)!  The FFF program will be collecting food until September 30th.  This year U.S. military officials are blaming the food crisis on The Pandemic, as well as domestic and foreign political intrigues: “The annual Feds Feed Families food drive is one of the best ways for commissaries and military families to give back to the communities which host us around the nation. Unfortunately, with the pandemic and related issues of the last few years, the need is as great as it has been in a long time. The good news is that a little goes a long way.”-Sergeant Major Michael R. Saucedo, U.S. Marine Corps, Director of Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA)
