Typhoon & WMD event? FEMA deploys Hawaii National Guard to Guam!

Video

For the second time a FEMA disaster event hit Guam.  During the last half of November 2019, Hawaii National Guard’s 93rd Weapons of Mass Destruction Civil Support Team deployed to assist Guam’s National Guard in responding to a Mass Destruction event.

In this video, emergency responders inspect a school hit by WMD, dramatic medivac of responder who got contaminated during inspection:

Guam is part of FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) Region 9, according to reports the U.S. island territory was hit by both a typhoon and a WMD terrorist attack!  Emergency responders from California, New Mexico, Alaska, and Utah also provided assistance.

Fortunately this was part of what is now standard FEMA training for National Guard units across all the FEMA Regions, called Vigilant Guard.

Official video report, Vigilant Guard 2020:

Silly-vilians should be concerned, every year since the creation of Vigilant Guard the scenarios have gotten more elaborate because the U.S. Department of Defense, and FEMA, are expecting something really big to happen.

Painting & decaling a 1:1 scale M4 Sherman

Video

The above World War Two photo is considered to depict the third In The Mood, a M4A1 76(w).  Note that the gun tube has no muzzle break.  The current restored In The Mood does.  Apparently all three In The Moods had extremely short lives.  There’s more info about the confusion over the various In The Mood M4s @ SSgt Lafayete Pool-“In The Mood”.

Despite bad luck with losing tanks, In The Mood’s tank commander, Lafayete Pool, is considered the U.S. Army’s tank ace of aces.

It took about 5-hundred hours and five volunteers, working from July to August 2019, to restore the current In The Mood.

Video of painting and decaling of restored In The Mood.  Note the use of the M60 AVLB to tow the Sherman out of the hanger. In the interview the volunteer refers to the engine as a “star engine”, another term for radial engine.  The volunteer mistakenly says the gun tube is 107.62mm, it’s actually 76.2mm (commonly stated as 76mm, known as 76w).

To see video of the moving of In The Mood from Belgium to Grafenwoehr, Germany, for its restoration, check out Vehicle I-D: M4 Sherman.

Vehicle I-D: Model T & White Motor Warriors

Video

At the beginning of November 2019, the Illinois State Military Museum held its Great War Encampment event and two 1917 Ford Model Ts showed up.

The Ford Model T gun truck is owned by John Krug, he also brought his 1917 Model T Ambulance.

In May 2018, Oregon’s Military Museum held its 22nd Annual Living History Day and retired Reservist Jack Gieson drove down from neighboring Washington in his 1917 Model T ambulance.

https://youtu.be/2rBzyseQ-54

A standardized class B truck, or ‘Liberty Truck’, also made the Living History Day show.

According to the folks at the AMedD (Army Medical Department) Museum at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, during World War One the U.S. Army also bought two 1917 White Motor Company ambulances.   While they look similar to the Model Ts, they were smaller than the Ford ambulance. In 1917 they cost about $1,650 each.

I so far haven’t found any information as to why the White ambulance has a GMC radiator.  U.S. Army orders for White logistical vehicles, during World War One, made White the top producer of trucks in the United States, which was a burden since the company was new to truck building.  Immediately prior to WW-1 the White Motor Company began shifting from car production to truck production, but was only able to make the truck chassis, they had to contract with Riddle Coach and Hearse Company to make the bodies of the trucks.  It’s possible White was also outsourcing for powertrain parts.

Bare Metal: NASA’s MD-11 experimental, your taxes saving the ‘private sector’ airline industry

Image

29AUG1995

Between August and November 1995, an experimental McDonnell Douglas MD-11 conducted landings under engine power only.

It happened at NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards Air Force Base, California, and it was the first time a transport aircraft landed with normal controls switched off.

It was part of a NASA project to develop a computer-assisted engine control system that enables a pilot to land a plane safely when its normal control surfaces fail.

The Propulsion-Controlled Aircraft (PCA) system uses standard autopilot controls already present in the cockpit, together with the new programming in the aircraft’s flight control computers.

The first PCA tests by NASA were carried out with a modified twin-engine F-15 Eagle research aircraft.  The F-15A was the second U.S. Air Force Eagle (71-0281), sent to work with NASA in 1976.

Vehicle I-D: New F-16 Wraith! Night Fighter WW-2 style!

Video

U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Miranda A. Loera, 28OCT2019.

On 28OCT2019 the 64th Aggressor Squadron (Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada) revealed their new ‘Wraith’ paint-job for the F-16.

USAF photo by Airman First Class Bryan Guthrie, 16NOV2019.

The paint scheme resembles the late World War Two/Korean conflict U.S. night fighter paint-job; black with red markings.  However, in WW-2/Korea the black was glossy as U.S. Army Air Force studies revealed that amazingly glossy black actually was harder to see from the ground with search lights, than a flat/matte (‘nonspecular’ as it was called back then) black.  The new F-16 Wraith uses flat black.

“These drunks will run over your children”: Immigrant Invasion U.S.A., October 2019

Incomplete (tip-o-the iceberg) list of main-stream-news links about global immigrant/border operations affecting the United States taxpayers, October 2019.

Mexico deports 311 illegals from India!  Indian news media reveal that last year as many as 9-thousand South Asians tried to enter the United States illegally through Mexico (in an attempt to escape increased persecution by Hindus)!
