The ‘240’ is also used by infantry and on ground vehicles like the M1 Abrams. The machine gun was originally designed back in the 1950s by Fabrique Nationale in the NATO co-founder country of Belgium (called the FN MAG). It uses 7.62x51mm (.308) NATO ammunition. The United States began using its version (called M240) in 1977.

U.S. armor shoots up border near Russia! Personnel wounded by gas attack?

According to U.S. military sources, four U.S. Army 19-Kilos (M1 Abrams crew-members) from Fort Carson, Colorado, were treated for carbon monoxide poisoning after a “malfunction” of their Panzerkampfwagen. It happened sometime around the beginning of April 2017, one 19K had to be sent to a hospital in Germany for further treatment. No details about the malfunction were released.

NATO member United States deployed an armor unit consisting of M1A2 Abrams to the eastern European country of Latvia, to conduct live fire training on Russia’s border:

Also, in an instigatory act, NATO member Canada deployed military units (some from Alberta Province) into Latvia’s eastern provinces (districts), which just happen to be populated by ethnic Russians (almost half of which are not considered official citizens of Latvia).

The most recent The Globe & Mail report says the Canucks will be “permanently garrisoned” in eastern Latvia. According to a CBC report, the Canucks will not only be ‘defending’ eastern Latvia from Russians, but from ‘fake news’ as well!

It’s all part of NATO’s latest instigation against Russia, called operation Enhanced Forward Presence. The NATO-Canada units in Latvia are specifically part of Enhanced Forward Presence Battlegroup Latvia/Operation Reassurance.

Vehicle I-D: CH-53 Sea Stallion, Cold War & beyond

Video April 8, 2017 Hutchins AAron

The CH-53 Sea Stallion (U.S. Air Force designation HH-53 Super Jolly Green Giant) was developed under Sikorsky’s S-65 program, the prototype first flew in 1964.

U.S. Marines pile out of their CH-53A, to begin a search and destroy operation 17 miles southeast of Phu Bai, Viet Nam, 18NOV1967. The Vietnam era workhorse continues to serve and support the U.S. Marine Corps, as well as other countries including Iran.

The Imperial Iranian Navy bought, and received, six RH-53Ds just before the Revolution. Apparently the RH vs CH designation denotes U.S. Navy (USN) vs U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) use of the Sea Stallion, the USN and Imperial Iran Navy using them primarily as minesweepers.

Iran ‘acquired’ five intact U.S. Marine CH-53Ds (former U.S. Navy RH-53Ds) due to the failed Eagle Claw operation, and has been able to get parts through international weapons dealers.

National Guard responds to chemical attack(?) in Arizona!

Arizona first responders and National Guard suit-up for toxic gas situation at animal hospital

On 06 APR 2017, employees at an animal hospital in Gilbert, Arizona, thought they smelled a gas leak. When the fire department investigated they claim to have found a toxic gas “hazmat situation” and ordered an evacuation of the Arizona Veterinary Specialists clinic.

The National Guard’s 91st Civil Support Team was called in, as well as surrounding municipality’s HAZMAT teams. Apparently first responders called it a hazmat situation because they determined it was not a gas leak, but they were not able to identify what was in the air.

Entering the Hot Zone in Level-A suits

14 dogs and one cat were evacuated, most were connected to medical equipment. Local news media said the first dog brought out was in critical condition, but didn’t say if it was due to the toxic gas. Veterinarians who checked out the animals after evacuation don’t think the animal’s conditions are connected to the hazmat situation.

Local news media say the employees, and the fire crews that responded to the 9-1-1 call, were checked for contamination. Finally, investigators determined the toxic gas was ethylene oxide, a chemical used to sterilize medical equipment.

Ethylene oxide is a flammable colorless gas with a sweet odor, and is also used to make toxic bug spray.

Snake River Militia (?) spends taxpayer money building hospitals in Central America!

Former National Guardsmen from Montana, now Army Reservists (but still wearing the patch of Idaho based Snake River Brigade), are in the Central American country of Belize building hospitals and schools under a U.S. Southern Command sub-operation called Double Head Cabbage.

Former Snake River Brigade member Sergeant Ramon Firestone, from Montana, measures a 2×4 for use in making roof supports in Belize

Belize was once a colony of the British empire, called British Honduras, gaining so-called independence in 1981. In 2006 oil was discovered in the area known as Spanish Lookout.

Double Head Cabbage is part of a larger operation between United States and Belize, called Beyond the Horizon 2017. Beyond the Horizon will provide free medical help to the people of Belize, at U.S. taxpayer expense!

Specialist Troy Hanson, from Montana. Defense Department reports say he’s with Army Reserve, but note the National Guard Snake River Brigade patch on his sleeve.

Interestingly the personnel from Montana claim to belong to a federal Army Reserve unit, yet they wear Idaho National Guard’s Snake River Brigade (116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team) patch (see pics above).

The Army Reserve unit the personnel claim to be from is known as the 672nd Engineer Company. I discovered that the 672nd was deactivated back in June 1959, but reactivated in September 2008.

The Montana reservists are wearing the National Guard patch on their right sleeves to indicate they were deployed to a combat zone with the Snake River Brigade. Recently rules were changed concerning the wearing of the ‘combat patch’. For a long time the size of the unit you deployed with, how long you were deployed in a combat zone, and whether or not Congress actually declared war, determined the wearing of the combat patch. Another problem has been that some brigade level commanders actually banned the wearing of combat patches. The wearing of the combat patch is voluntary.

The U.S. state of Georgia recently hosted the massive Vigilant Guard 17 part 2 exercise (Vigilant Guard 17 part 1 was held in California & Nevada at the end of 2016):

The exercise is promoted as preparations for natural disasters, however our leaders must be expecting a massive catastrophic event because Vigilant Guard 17-2 included the United States Northern Command, U.S. Coast Guard, National Guard Bureau, Georgia Department of Defense, Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency, South Carolina National Guard, Kentucky National Guard, Florida National Guard, Tennessee National Guard, Virgin Islands National Guard, and included preparations for a Chemical-Biological-Radiological ‘event’!
