“lost in time”: Pacific Ring of Fire, July 2019

Incomplete list of seismic/natural disaster reports from around the Pacific Ring of Fire, July 2019.  Not only is quake and volcano activity ramping up around the Pacific Ring of Fire, it’s ramping up around the planet.

A new business report says seismic surveys “can grow into the most important market in the world that has played an important role in making progressive impacts on the global economy.”

COLOMBIA:  And for more proof you can’t blame humans for climate change, anybody remember the TV show Space 1999?  Turns out the Moon is being pushed from the Earth right, although slowly and not by nuclear waste explosion, but the catastrophic climate change results are the same as in Space 1999: “Earth’s tidal strength is gradually pushing the moon away from us at a rate of about 3 centimeters a year. Therefore, the moon is indeed a potential ploonet once it reaches an unstable orbit.”-Mario Sucerquia, University of Antioquia

The U.S. Navy conducted ‘subject matter expert exchanges’ with Colombian counterparts, including a FEMA Disaster Training course.  The object is to unify disaster response techniques: “It’s cool to see the differences in how we perform similar treatments. We are picking up different ideas from each other, which will improve our abilities, and this training will allow us to integrate easily when we operate jointly.”-Hospital Corpsman 3rd Class Dennis Hueston

The fires keep burning in eastern Idaho.  Things got so hot today that evacuations of ‘non-essential personnel’ were ordered near the Idaho National Laboratory’s nuclear jet engine and EBR-1 nuclear-disaster-reactor,  due to the rapid expansion of the ‘Sheep Fire’ (about 85-thousand acres, 34398 hectares).

All hell breaks loose in Wisconsin, operation Patriot North is underway!

Video, Nebraska National Guard UH-72 Lakota joins the fun:

Food insecurity, unemployment, failed national and local governments, and non-stop natural disasters leading to race riots and civil war.  It’s July 2019 and Wisconsin is ground zero for Patriot North 2019 DomOps (Domestic Operations).

Apparently various National Guard focused  ‘patriot’ operations are not called patriot because they’re trying to be patriotic, the ‘patriot’ exercises are a directive of the Patriot Act signed into law after the 9-11 attacks.

Official video explaining The Burn Pit:

Starting the third week of July, Air and Army National Guard units from across the United States converged upon Volk Field and Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, for a massive domestic ‘natural-or-man-made’ disaster response exercise.

While parts of Arkansas were hit by floods in June, 2019, Little Rock Air Force Base was hit by an ‘unknown substance’ that sent emergency responders scrambling.

19th Civil Engineer Squadron emergency management journeyman, takes a sample of an unknown substance found on Little Rock AFB, 12JUN2019.

Don’t worry (too much) it was all part of monthly CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosive) training meant to keep their ‘combat edge’: “We train everybody in chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive defense to be ready at the drop of a hat…..

I love learning the science behind my job! If I wasn’t in the military, I wouldn’t be able to do any of this….”-Airman 1st Class Candace Carrico, 19th Civil Engineer Squadron

PACIFIC RING OF FIRE, May 2019: “NUCLEAR COFFIN”

Recovery Ops: DKM Prinz Eugen 2018, or the Nine Anchors

Sometime just before the July atom bomb tests over Bikini Atoll, 1946. The USS Prinz Eugen awaits its fate.

Removing fuel oil from the former, and seemingly indestructible, German cruiser Prinz Eugen. U.S. Navy photo by Petty Officer Second Class Joshua Fulton, 07SEP2018.

“There are no longer active leaks with 95 percent of the potential oil volume having been removed. Any remaining oil is enclosed in a few internal tanks without leakage and are well protected with multiple barriers of ship construction. Of the 173 total oil tanks, the 159 external tanks have been pumped of all appreciable amount of oil or were found empty.”-Lieutenant Commander Tim Emge, USN officer-in-charge of salvage operations

USN photo by Stephanie Bocek, 04SEP2018.

In October 2018, at Enubuj Island in Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Islands, the U.S. Mobile Diving Salvage Unit declared the recovery of fuel oil from the nuclear blasted DKM Prince Eugen completed.

U.S. Army photo by Carrie David Campbell, 25JUL2018.

Since radiation levels emanating from the nuclear weapons testing victim were deemed safe enough for humans to dive on, the Republic of the Marshall Islands (the official owner of Prince Eugen since 1986) demanded that the 250-thousand gallons of fuel oil onboard be removed.

The DeutcheKriegsMarine (DKM) Prinz Eugen still has an ongoing radical life story.  Fighting alongside Bismarck at the beginning of World War Two, then surviving numerous bomb and torpedo attacks by the British, surviving the war after fighting the Soviet advance upon Germany to be surrendered to the British empire, which then turned it over to the U.S. Navy where it became the USS Prinz Eugen IX-300.

Sometime between March and July 1946, USS Prinz Eugen in the Panama Canal, on its way to Bikini Atoll.

According to the U.S. National Park Service, the guns from Turret A and the fire control tower were removed before the atomic testing, at the Philadelphia Navy Yard in February-March 1946, as a kind of before-after control.

USS Prinz Eugen.

In July 1946, possibly because the USN was having trouble with the Eugen’s boilers, it was decided to drop The Bomb on it. Amazingly Eugen survived not one, but two nuclear bomb blasts (Able Day and Baker Day).

Photo dated 02AUG1946, starboard side of twice nuclear blasted Eugen.

Port side of USS Prinz Eugen, 02AUG1946.

Color USN Navy film from 20AUG1946, by Photographer’s Mate W.J. Gibson, towing the nuclear blasted USS Prinz Eugen to its impending (and not expected) doom by capsizing, from Bikini to Kwajalein (quality of film is not good). You might notice USN personnel walking about the radioactive ship:

However, after being towed back to Enubuj Island, Eugen suddenly capsized and sank, next to Carlson Island. 

Edited from U.S. Army promotional film about working on the Kwajalein Missile Test Site, from Summer 1972, showing the capsized Eugen which still has all of its screws (props):

Since 1979 various parts have been salvaged by various organizations.

In 2010, Republic of the Marshall Islands wanted the fuel oil still onboard removed for environmental reasons.  The fuel oil recovery began in February 2018 and ended in October 2018.

It took nine anchors to hold the two recovery ships over Eugen, while the oil was being extracted. USN photo by LeighAhn Ferrari, 04SEP2018.

I lost trust in fellow officers I had respected who were accepting bribes – even one who was my academy instructor. After two and a half years, I knew I had to get out of there!”James I.

(Reminds me of a cop crime while I was working in the News Department of KYMA, in Arizona, in 1995.  Store owners in a shopping plaza were reporting massive thefts, they were taking place overnight even though the shop owners were paying the city of Yuma to have cops patrol the plaza.  Yep it was a cop!  The dumb cop that was committing the crime didn’t stop to realize that it’d be easy to finger him because the thefts took place only on his watch.  Other cops staked out the plaza on his watch and caught him red handed.)

A study published by Science Advances claims that you can determine if you’re experiencing a major magnitude 7 to 9 quake 10 seconds into the shaking. I’ve experienced dozens of earthquakes in my life, both large and small, and I concur there is a noticeable difference in the M6 and large quakes; if you’re directly over the epicenter the Earth heaves under your feet, I’ve seen people literally thrown straight up into the air by a couple of feet (I was sitting in a parked minivan at the time and it bounced violently, as if we were off-roading at 30mph.)  If you’re on the periphery of a major quake it feels like a giant dog has grabbed you and is trying to shake you to death.
