1939 v 2019; Germany invades Poland again, this time with the help of NATO!

In September 1939, Germany invaded Poland on the pretext that Polish terrorists were attaching German radio stations (which is now considered a False Flag attack).  It actuality was vengeance for having German territory stolen by the French and British empires, after World War One, to create what is now known as Poland.

The same thing happened after World War Two, and hundreds of thousands of Germans were disappeared by the Soviets and British empire as even more German territory was taken to create today’s boundaries for Poland!

(A generation gap exists between Germans expelled from Eastern Europe after World War II and their grandchildren, The monument was erected by members of Poland’s ethnic German minority, which was suppressed under four decades of Polish communism, Revenge on Ethnic Germans: Czech Town Divided, For the first time, a central memorial and monument for the Germans expelled from Hungary were inaugurated in Budaörs, The 1,000s of Germans massacred after WWII, also during the war the Soviet Union rounded up hundreds of thousands of ethnic Germans, and what happened to the thousands of German civilians expelled from Iran by the British and Soviet invaders?)

From June thru July 2019, Germany invaded and occupied Poland, this time as part of a larger NATO operation called Noble Jump 2019.  The German led NATO ‘spearhead battalion’ also consisted of units from Netherlands (just troops as the Dutch got rid of their main battle tanks in 2011) and Norway.

Even women took part in the invasion (oh my!).

NATO video explaining the German led invasion:

“Noble Jump is a defensive exercise. It will prove our very high readiness ground troops are ready and rapidly deployable, wherever and whenever needed. Readiness and mobility are key to NATO’s deterrence posture.”-U.S. Admiral James Foggo, Allied Joint Force Command Naples/NATO Response Force 2019

On 13JUL2019, the invasion culminated in an epic tank battle involving armor from the United States, Germany and Poland.  However, in the video it seems they were all on the same side and you can’t tell who they’re fighting.  I don’t know who won.

Isn’t it ironic that a country punished for trying to regain and hold onto stolen territory is now helping U.S. led NATO to occupy those same territories?

Appalachian Care Innovative Readiness Training 2019 began 16AUG2019, and ends on the 29th (that’s according to the military info, but the facebook page says 19-26).  It involves National Guard, Air Force, Air Force Reserve, Army, Army Reserve and Navy Reserve personnel conducting ‘free’ (taxpayer expense) to the public medical care in Wise County, Virginia.

Military personnel will provide medical, dental, optometry and even pet care!  So much for ObamaCare-ACA, these Appalachian Care/Appalachian Mountain IRT operations began under President Obama precisely because Obama knew people were not covered under the Affordable Care Act.  Official video report from 2014:

Since 2014 the Appalachian Care/Appalachian Mountain Individual Readiness Training ops have been taking place at various locations across the Appalachian Mountain region.

Hi-tech fail: Germany still trains up old-skool Cavalry!

It’s pronounced Cav-all-ry, not calvary (calvary is the name of the hill where supposedly somebody named Jesus of Nazareth was executed), and today’s German army still trains up old fashioned horse riders.

CERFP hit the fan in Illinois!

C-ERFP stands for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear (CBRN) Enhanced Response Force Package (ERFP).   It happened in Illinois at the end of July 2019.  Did you hear about it?

The Illinois National Guard’s CERFP unit is responsible for Search and Extraction, Decontamination, and Medical Treatment of victims of human-made or natural disasters.

They conducted CERFP training at Muscatatuck Urban Training Center, 26JUL2019, focusing on rescuing people from a collapsed building.  Ooh, looks like that one lost its head as well as its clothes!

Here’s video of how they’ll rescue your sorry butt during a disaster in a ‘contaminated’ area:

Minicraft first issued its 1:48 scale UH-60 kits in 1986.  In 2001, Minicraft re-boxed it as a U.S. Customs Black Hawk.  The box art, and even photos of completed kit on the sides of the box, depict it with a FLIR pod under the chin, but no such animal can be found on the sprues.  All you get is a crappy looking search light.  I’ll have to scratch build the FLIR, or steal it from a different helicopter kit.   Many of the Customs Black Hawks have the bent tip rotary wings, the Minicraft kit still has the straight blades from the 1980s.  The Minicraft markings are for U.S. Customs, which ceased to exist as an independent agency in 2003, merged with U.S. Border Patrol, and parts of Immigration and Naturalization Service, becoming today’s U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).  As you can see from the photos above, the CBP markings are slightly different from the old U.S. Customs markings, and today’s Black Hawk has an extended nose for housing the FLIR (Forward Looking Infra-Red) as well as mounts on the side of the cockpit for other electronic gadgets. The interior of the Minicraft UH-60 is devoid of details, but can be expeditiously improved using the old-but-gold Monogram crew figures from the still viable Monogram UH-1 Huey (interesting that the Monogram ‘copter first issued in 1959 is more detailed than the Minicraft ‘copter first issued in 1986).

PJ Production also has a new resin set of 1:48 U.S. helicopter crew figures, although they’re sold as Vietnam era crew figures I think they could be used for late Cold War Black Hawks.

At the end of April 2019, Idaho Army National Guard’s 1-183rd Assault Helicopter Battalion deployed to Guatemala in support of operation Beyond the Horizon.

Keep in mind this is the Central American country allegedly sending the most illegals into the U.S., forcing the U.S. President to make a deal with the leaders of Guatemala to make an effort to keep their people home (never mind that the U.S. Department of Defense spends untold tax dollars conducting massive military and natural disaster training ops in Guatemala).

In this telling pic you can see that a double wall system is being built.  The snaking wall on the left is where Border Patrol vehicles can drive, to see if anybody came through the straight wall.

Ever hear of the Border Patrol Explorers (aka CPB Explorer Program)?  It’s a joint venture between Boy Scouts of America and U.S. Customs and Border Patrol.   On 01JUL2019, nine Border Patrol Explores got a taxpayer funded trip to the Presidio, including the Department of Defense Language Institute.
