GIDE-3/ADE-5 began on 09JUL2021, in Michigan. It involves A-10Cs of the Michigan Air National Guard (107th Fighter Squadron), F-16s of the Ohio ANG (112th FS), U.S. Air Force (USAF) T-38 Talons, Sentinel radar systems from the North Dakota Army National Guard (188th Air Defense Artillery Regiment), remote control helicopters (small R/C drones), a portable data broadcast system mounted on a Toyota Tacoma known as Cell On Light Truck (COLT), a portable ‘all-domain command and control advanced battle management system’ known as an Anduril Industries tower, an ‘enhanced’ cyber communications system called a Flyaway Kit, something called a Yoda Box which I have yet to find an explanation for what the Yoda Box is, except it might be connected to the now infamous Starlink satellite system (of which I warned about last year).

USAF video interview, a poor attempt to explain what a Flyaway Kit is, the interviewee admits he joined the Air Force to do “cool stuff” like Terminator stuff:

GIDE is officially described as a data-centric software-based experiment which combines humans and technology to innovate and accelerate development of systems for domain awareness, information dominance, decisional superiority, and global integration.

And just like in the movie Terminator, ADE is an attempt to integrate hi-tech systems and connect multiple sensors to a common operating network with artificial intelligence (A-I).  GIDE is a sub-operation of ADE.  And ADE is part of the USAF’s recently created Chief Architect Office, created in 2019 specifically to develop what they call a ‘system of systems’, in other words a system to control all systems.

Anduril Industries is a company that provides A-I driven surveillance systems for the U.K.’s Royal Navy, the U.S. Air Force and for U.S. Customs and Border Protection operations.

U.S. Medical & Food Disaster: This is not a drill! Military drug dealers take over local high schools?

New Mexico Air National Guard photo by Airman First Class Lauren McMullen.

On 07JUL2021, active duty military, and National Guard medical personnel from across the United States, took over Greenville High School, in Mississippi.

Operations involving food service, dentistry, ambulance service, optometry, psychiatric care, and even drug distribution (pharmacy) were carried out as part of Delta Wellness Mission 2021.  Greenville High School was one of three locations used for the Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) operation.

New Mexico ANG photo by Airman First Class Lauren McMullen.

The military uses IRTs as one way to train for disaster response, but Delta Wellness Mission 2021 is not a drill or training exercise, it is a continuation, under a new name, of a program started under the Obama Administration to provide free healthcare and food service to local residents.

New Mexico ANG photo by Airman First Class Lauren McMullen.

The taxpayer funded military medical service for silly-vilians program was started in 2014 (OPERATION APPALACHIAN CARE; PROOF OBAMACARE-ACA FAILED, AND OBAMA KNEW IT DID!).

Georgia ANG has already deployed their DRMKT, in October 2018.   It was sent to the town of Colquitt, where victims of Hurricane Michael were fed hot meals.

Illinois ANG photo by Technical Sergeant Lealan Buehrer.

In August 2017, the Illinois and Idaho ANGs deployed their DRMKTs to the Crow Reservation in Montana.  Over several weeks, the Illinois and Idaho ANGs fed Montana Guard personnel working to build new housing on the Crow Reservation: “You can do just about anything you can do on base in this kitchen. We’ve got two full ovens, flattop grill, a stockpot station, a three-compartment sink and then a tray ration heater which can also double as making pasta or boiling water, or whatever else you need it for.”-Staff Sergeant Christopher Leigh, Montana ANG

Minnesota ANG photo by Technical Sergeant Lynette Hoke.

The first use of DRMKTs during a real disaster was in 2017.  Members of Ohio and Minnesota Air National Guard units deployed, with their DRMKTs, to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria.

Ohio ANG photo by First Lieutenant Paul Stennett.

National Guard units using the DRMKT after Hurricane Maria claimed they could serve 8-hundred meals per day.  If there are a mass of people to feed then up to 1-thousand meals per 90 minutes can be achieved, but only by using ‘boil-in-bag’ meals (basically MREs).

In January 2017, Air National Guard units from across the U.S. converged their DRMKTs on FedEx Field, Washington DC, to feed security personnel during the Presidential Inauguration of Donald Trump.

The Georgia ANG first received their DRMKT back in February 2015, delivered via C-130 cargo plane.

In August 2014, a DRMKT was delivered to the Ohio Air National Guard  (FEMA Region 5) via C-130 transport aircraft: “The State of Ohio was selected to receive the Disaster Response Mobile Kitchen Trailer due to geographical location within FEMA Region 5, and state leadership selected the 179th Airlift Wing for this mission due to the C-130 cargo planes capability to transport the asset.”-Senior Master Sergeant Dana Togliatti

The first use of a DRMKT was by Texas and Nebraska Air National Guard, during disaster wargame Patriot Exercise 2013, in Wisconsin.

Wyoming ANG photo by Technical Sergeant Natalie Stanley.

The Guard units trying it out concluded they could feed 4-hundred people per day using one DRMKT.

Wyoming ANG photo by Technical Sergeant Natalie Stanley.

DRMKTs were developed in 2012 (called Mobile Kitchens by Babington Technology), to give National Guard units a faster response time in getting cooked meals to survivors of disasters.  Washington DC ANG video report, by Master Sergeant Gareth Buckland, unveiling of DRMKT:

The DRMKT has ‘frigerators, uses fans for ventilation and to keep flying insects out, all computer controlled, and thanks to liquid fuel burning cooking units the DRMKT uses only 2-thousand watts total.

On 30JUN2021, Grumman built Cygnus class SS (Space Ship) Katherine Johnson deployed a U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command (USASMDC) ‘Gunsmoke’ targeting satellite.

Northrop Grumman photo.

The SS Katherine Johnson is a remote controlled cargo ship, and was deployed to the International Space Station (ISS) in February 2021 (called NG-15 resupply mission).  Normally, the Cygnus class space ship is used to bring supplies to the ISS, and then haul trash away.  This time it launched five ‘CubSats’ as it left the ISS, on 29JUN2021, including the U.S. Army’s Gunsmoke.

Gunsmoke-J (‘J’ for Jacob’s Ladder, a type of CubSat) is an APNT (Assured Position Navigation and Timing) satellite.  It is a small satellite designed to provide combat units on planet Earth with location information about possible targets on the ground.  The Gunsmoke program has been in the works for the past fives years.

 

The U.S. Army Space Force has launched three Gunsmoke-Js; one on an Electron rocket at the end of March 2021, a second deployed via SS Katherine Johnson at the end of June (after launching from Earth in February),…..

Virgin Orbit photo.

….and the third was launched off a modified Virgin Orbit Boeing 747 (Operation Tubular Bells: Part One) also at the end of June: “This deployment and same day launch of two separate Gunsmoke-J satellites is a major step toward demonstrating what we believe will be enabling tactical warfighter capability.”-Wheeler ‘Chip’ Hardy, USASMDC Technical Center Space Directorate’s Space Applications Division

Idaho’s heritage A-10C ‘8N’

P-47D Thunderbolt bubble-top 8N-X.

“It’s more than just history, it’s our heritage, it’s who we are.”-Major Tom Silkowski, Idaho’s 190th Fighter Squadron

P-47D Thunderbolt ‘Black Jack’ code 8N-O, 371st FG-405th FS.

Towards the end of May 2021, the Idaho Air National Guard unveiled their heritage ‘8N’ A-10C Thunderbolt-2.  8N is the squadron code for the U.S. Army 9th Air Force-371st Fighter Group’s 405th Fighter Squadron.

Idaho Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sergeant Joshua C. Allmaras.

It was part of 75th anniversary celebrations for the 190th Fighter Squadron’s(FS) birthday, 24MAY1946.  The old 405th FS logo was added to the nacelles after returning from its heritage paint job in Iowa.

Idaho Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sergeant Joshua C. Allmaras.

Idaho Air National Guard photo by Senior Master Sergeant Joshua C. Allmaras.

The 190th FS evolved out of the 405th FS, which flew P-47 Thunderbolts during World War Two (hence the false tail number 405190). In 1944, P-47s of the 405th carried the code 8N on their fuselages: “Every aspect of that paint job, down to the smallest detail, is deliberate and faithful to how our P-47’s looked in the summer of 1944. We weren’t going for glitz and a superficial ‘wow factor.’ This isn’t a toy airplane; it’s one of our beautiful A-10 Thunderbolt-2s dressed in the same scheme worn by our P-47 Thunderbolts in World War Two. It’s like a little boy wearing his dad’s military uniform. I think that’s what makes it so special.”-Major Tom Silkowski, Idaho’s 190th FS

On 07JUL2021, 8N took part in refuel training over Mountain Home Air Force Base (AFB), Idaho.

But it is not the first time 8N got refueled mid-flight.  On its way home from the heritage paint job (done at the Air National Guard Paint Facility in Sioux City), the Iowa Air National Guard’s 185th ARW provided fuel for the flight back to Idaho.

“…a perfect terrible storm.”: Crawling Mormon Crickets & Flying Grasshoppers join forces?

Children on Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota, get a lesson on how to eat crickets during a survival course. U.S. Air Force photo by Airman First Class Jessica Weissman.

When I first moved to Southeastern Idaho (25 years ago), I experienced one of the cyclical swarming of grasshoppers in the region.  When grasshoppers swarm and eat everything in site they are called Locust.

U.S. Forest Service personnel instruct Marine Corps & Navy personnel how to survive by eating bugs like crickets. U.S. Navy photo by Seaman Matthew F. Jackson.

Not only was my garden in my yard being inundated with plant eating grasshoppers, but while hiking in the Scout Mountain area I observed tens of thousands of grasshoppers cannibalizing each other.  In an open field the ground was undulating, upon closer inspection it was a carpet of grasshoppers doing battle, biting each other’s heads off and then eating the loser (and I they were bleeding red blood)!

That was back in the late 1990s, today there is a new problem; grasshoppers (which can fly) and Mormon Crickets (which cannot fly) have joined forces by seemingly syncing their once individual swarm cycles, and it could have everything to do with the decades long drought in the Western United States (U.S.).

Another possible reason is that it was recently discovered that Utah state Department of Agriculture employees ‘mishandled’ federal grant funding that was intended for use in insect control programs, instead spending the money on transportation expenses!

The situation is so threatening to U.S. farming operations that the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is spending $2.8-million in tax funding to suppress the new ‘Locust’.  While this situation might be new to most of us, agriculture officials have been warning since 2003 of the coming Mormon Cricket storm.
