We stumbled across the first alert that was sent out to the media re: military exercises to take place in the Boston area. So trying to find more info we stumbled across the report by CBS Boston that apparently occurred on June 15. Just a tad bit earlier than the Media alert. So..........we googled more.
And what you see is what you get. Over and over again. So I've got my tin hat and am retiring to the closet with a nine volt battery to hold to my tongue whilst I channel some original Boston Tea Party patriots. You know, the dead ones.
However if for some reason or another we are unable to telepathically contact some Harbor dwelling bone could somebody from Boston send us a link to actual happenings.
Oh yeah, contact my ol lady and her to open the closet door. I accidentally locked myself in (and yes AI always take my computer into the closet with me).
**MEDIA ALERT** Military Training Exercises to Take Place In and Around Boston
Joint federal military training exercises will take place within and around the Boston area between July 26th and August 5th. Military personnel will conduct training exercises to ensure the military's ability to operate in urban environments, prepare forces for upcoming overseas deployments, and meet mandatory training certification requirements. Helicopters will be used in some exercises.
The Boston Police Department is working with military personnel to coordinate training sites that will minimize negative impacts on our Boston citizens and their daily routines. Safety precautions have been taken to prevent risk to the general public and the military personnel involved. With that, training site locations are not open to the public and will be guarded by uniformed personnel to provide additional safety.
