[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW I’m hearing it was simulating getting a govt official to safety as it was a COG (continuity of government) exercise.

“The missions are routine: In the event of a catastrophe, helicopters are often employed to usher government officials to safety.”[/quote]

This is not secret intel, it's a direct CNN quote, so why not say so? These routine simulation exercises were widely covered in the news in the past couple of days.

[i]"The soldiers on the Black Hawk were conducting what Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth described as an annual nighttime training on 'a continuity of government mission.' The missions are routine: In the event of a catastrophe, helicopters are often employed to usher government officials to safety. Crew members had night vision goggles, the defense secretary said."[/i]

Ok … even if training to evacuate VIP’s is necessary, why tf was it necessary for the evacuation route to go through DCA? Makes no sense. [/quote]

Since you seem to know definitively that it makes no sense, please tell us where does the evacuation route they were training on go from and to (such that it makes no sense to pass by DCA)? [/quote]

You tell us. It makes no sense for the evacuation route to go through a busy civilian airport - not the least reason being then they have to train pilots in the middle of a busy civilian airport. No, as a resident of DC who has helicopters constantly over my house, I don’t accept it. [/quote]

No one GAF what random internet bullies “accept”. [/quote]

Oh, that’s hilarious. The ACTUAL “random internet bullies” are the idiots coming back here again and again to trash the helicopter pilot. DP.[/quote]
