Hey, we are just pretending to dig mass graves.
Perfectly normal!
You never know when you are going to have to
execute citizensunalive bad guys.This annual training is done for all Corp of Engineering groups for each base, timing is a bit unfortunate considering. This training is planned out months in advance to coordinate logistics.
That’s not what the article says:
The Fort Bragg exercises were the first time in more than 20 years that U.S. Army chaplains, and personnel dedicated to religious affairs in the military, received training in how to contribute to temporary gravedigging on the battlefield, the Army said.
Edit: I read what you said better, and these aren’t actually in conflict. Why was the army asking chaplains to do it? Terrifying.
That doesn’t contradict them. Your quote is clearly saying it’s happened before, but this is the first time Army chaplains have been involved. It’s a change of procedure, but not a new activity.
See my edit from three minutes after I posted
Ah, ok. Well why they would ask chaplains to participate (they’re not taking over) is that they’re basically the ones in charge of burials and religious ceremonies. It makes sense to have them involved to make sure it’s all being done as humanely as possible.
Every year the army gets ready to impose martial law. No reason is given, but we are assured it is about to go down by that one guy who saw a convoy of vehicles.
And God forbid you live in states like Virginia. We start seeing more FA/18, Osprey, etc training runs over the Shenandoah Valley and you swear its “Boys, grab your rifles and your boots. We’re going to war!”
Then you check and its a carrier getting ready to set sail and its easier to do test runs when the parts are on base vs in the Med.
And the NG clogging up RT81 running convoy.
Good to know it wasn’t just some kind of grave mistake.
If every base and branch was doing this then I would start shitting peach pits. This is just one base and one engineer brigade. There are many in the US Army. Then you add in the National Guard, it gets bigger just on the Army side of the house.
Standard training, business as usual.
But panicking is more fun
Who doesn’t enjoy a bit of entropy in the morning? It smells like, victory.
Jade Helm 2026! Woo!
Something tells me there’s a PAO somewhere with a very big headache right now.
I was going to bring up Jade Helm! It also seems like any Robin Sage event ends up by accident coinciding w/ a major geo-political event and the tin foil hats come out in force.
People need to understand, NOTHING happens fast in the US government unless its reactionary. Large scale training or joint training events take months and months to plan.
Yeah I would not want to be the PAO @ Ft Bragg right now!
I mean it’s not just about burying your own troops. You can’t leave corpses strewn about your position without spreading sickness and disease. The way Russia throws lives into the meat grinder has dissolved any notions that modern warfare put an end to the use of cannon fodder.
I think they are practicing for something a bit more… Domestic?
I don’t know why they think they would need mass graves, the US military has some of the most advanced steam catapult technology the world has ever seen.
I know. most of the places they want to kill people are coastal. the ocean is right there. I don’t get it.
Battlefield, domestic neighborhood, ToMAYto toMAHto.
“FEMA camps”
