GCC Air Forces go on High Alert!! PERSIAN GULF - The U.S. Army’s 3-159th "Quickstrike" Attack Reconnaissance Battalion met the USS New York in the Persian Gulf Friday bringing with them a lot of firsts. Quoting: DoorBert The battalion became the first to land an AH-64D Longbow Apache aboard the vessel when they partnered with the Navy crew to train the Army pilots how to land on the deck of a ship. “We’ve never had an Apache aboard this ship until today,” said Navy Capt. Jon Kreitz, commanding officer of the USS New York. “We take every chance we get to do something special and today is no different." [link to www.dvidshub.net] Well now we know what's really going on. Long bows eh? I think I can see what the potential battle plan my be. I wonder what the Navy's equivalent of a Wild Weasel is nowadays? |

GCC Air Forces go on High Alert!! Iran should be happy Assad is still running Syria. NATO/Saudi's/UAE/Quter/Jordan/Israel are within weeks of turning Iran into a non-nuclear friend of NATO countries and the Sunni Arabs. I now believe that NATO and the Arab league has decided to not get bogged down in Syria and to go straight to their mutual problem in the region, Iran and topple it. The Turkish fighter jet that was shot down was the perfect opening for NATO to officially engage Syria militarily. Since that did not happen, I believe we getting ready to push Iran to their breaking point and BOMB THEM FOR WEEKS before ground forces are sent in to mop up.
