On 17MAY2023, the U.S. Air Force’s (USAF) 6th Security Forces Squadron Marine Patrol Unit led Operation Neptune’s Storm (aka Operation Neptune Storm), it was not about a natural disaster, but defending national security along the Florida coastline: “This operation demonstrated the collective strength and preparedness of our partners in safeguarding our coastlines. Operation Neptune’s Storm highlights the seamless coordination between military, state, and local agencies to protect our national interests and ensure the safety of our communities.”-Colonel Jason Parker, USAF 6th Mission Support Group

MacDill Air Force Base (AFB) is near Tampa, and is charged with providing aerial fueling of military aircraft in that region. The USAF even referres to MacDill AFB as “America’s premier power projection platform.” If that is the case, then you need more than puny coastal patrol boats that are typically used to intercept illegal ‘boat people’ trying to get into the United States, unless the future threat is unprecedented waves of boat people?

A USAF press release stated it was also about protecting the City of Tampa from a yet to be publicly identified threat: “Operation Neptune’s Storm served as a testament to the commitment and readiness of Tampa’s community, state, local, and federal partners to overcome any challenges and emerge victorious in the face of potential threats.”
