Vehicle I-D: Last ‘Spooky’ days of the AC-130U Gunship?

On 08JUL2019, some of the last AC-130U ‘Spooky’ with the 4th Special Operations Squadron returned from a recent deployment.

AC-130Us have been on constant deployment since 2001, but are supposed to soon be replaced by the new AC-130J Ghostrider.

U.S. Air Force video report by Staff Sergeant Marleah Cabano:

A Spooky sight at Hurlburt Field, Florida, 08JUL2019.

Here’s a cool video of the homecoming:

New Madrid 7.7 Seismic Event, massive National Guard deployment!

“In a domestic operation situation it don’t matter if it’s the Air or the Army, the public needs us to come as one team with one fight and to help relieve whatever situation is going on.”-Major General Tommy Baker,  Deputy Adjutant General of the Tennessee National Guard

Mass-casualty training at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri.

From the end of May 2019, thru the beginning of June 2019, the U.S. military held a multi-state (Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee) National Guard/local responder exercise called Shaken Fury, in preps for a major New Madrid Seismic Zone event.

Official video explainer of operation Shaken Fury 2019. What if a 7.7 quake hit the mid-western U.S.? (with overly dramatic music):

One of the things Guard personnel trained for was reacting without any prior notice (called a ‘no-notice’ response). The main purpose of Shaken Fury was to identify potential problem areas for local disaster response.

Official video report of Tennessee National Guard mass casualty evac on C-17 Globemaster:

The training involved anything from being able to deploy large transport aircraft to martial law crowd control of ‘zombie’ quake victims.

Armored vehicles prepped for martial law crowd control at Camp McCain, Mississippi.

Official Mississippi National Guard video report explaining their version of martial law crowd control:

Simulated roof-top rescue, obviously they expect homes to fall victims to liquifaction.

It should be noted that the U.S. government, through Department of Homeland Security, pushed for the Shaken Fury training as part of a FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) policy called Emergency Support Function 14-Long-Term Community Recovery: “Understanding how disruptions cascade across infrastructure, and the role of private industry in responding and stabilizing our systems, is particularly important in major disasters such as the one we are exercising in Shaken Fury. This cross-sector understanding is what CISA aims to provide through the newly established Emergency Support Function number 14.”-Brian Harrell, Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)

At the end of May, 2019, the  Idaho Army National Guard’s 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team (which includes personnel from Oregon, Montana and Nevada) deployed more than 3-thousand troops to the U.S. Army’s Fort Irwin National Training Center (NTC) in California.

Idaho Air National Guard’s 124th Fighter Wing also deployed their A-10C Thunderbolt-2s to Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, to provide close air support at NTC.  Even Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) personnel from Brazil joined in.

Even Idaho Air National Guard’s 266th Range Squadron played bad guy, deploying fake 1/1 scale models of ‘enemy’ anti-air vehicles.

The wargame lasted 14 days.  The official report stated that this training is preparation for 116th’s deployment to NATO Germany in Spring 2020.

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.

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.
