Be VERY VERY careful.

The entire area is in play. An event is scheduled in the Middle East which may not remain under control and, depending on your location, be dangerous. If you operate UAV equipment, you should be relatively safe from a domestic situation. If other parties do not allow it to remain domestic, you will not be protected within a UAV OP center.

A wise man would have his family ready for life without him. A wise man would prepare them and also have a very fast way out of the area.

The sandbox will be no better.
