Guardsmen to conduct urban training at Arcadia in April

By BUTCH HEMAN
Staff Writer

The Carroll National Guard unit will train on urban military operations by holding a four-day exercise at Arcadia.

The purpose of the April 2-5 drill will be to gather intelligence, then search for and apprehend a suspected weapons dealer, according to Sgt. Mike Kots, readiness NCO for Alpha Company.

Citizens, law enforcement, media and other supporters will participate.

Troops will spend Thursday, April 2, staging at a forward operations base at Carroll. The next day company leaders will conduct reconnaissance and begin patrolling the streets of Arcadia to identify possible locations of the weapons dealer.

The primary phase will be done Saturday, April 4, when convoys will be deployed from Carroll to Arcadia. Pictures of the arms dealer will be shown in Arcadia, and soldiers will go door to door asking if residents have seen the suspect.

Soldiers will knock only at households that have agreed to participate in the drill, Kots noted.

“Once credible intelligence has been gathered,” said Kots, “portions of the town will be road-blocked and more in-depth searches of homes and vehicles will be conducted in accordance with the residents’ wishes.

“One of the techniques we use in today’s political environment is cordon and knock,” Kots explained. “We ask for the head of the household, get permission to search, then have them open doors and cupboards. The homeowner maintains control. We peer over their shoulder, and the soldier uses the homeowner’s body language and position to protect him.”

During this phase of the operation, troops will interact with residents and media while implementing crowd-control measures and possibly treating and evacuating injured persons.

The unit will use a Blackhawk helicopter for overhead command and control, and to simulate medevacs.

The drill will culminate in the apprehension of the suspected arms dealer.

Alpha Company will conduct a review of the drill on Sunday, April 5.

A meeting to give residents more information and accept volunteers will be held 7 p.m. Monday, March 2, in the Arcadia American Legion hall.

Kots said the exercise will replace Alpha Company’s weekend drill for April.

“We have a lot of extended drills this coming year,” he added.

In addition to surveillance, searching and apprehension, the exercise will also give the troops valuable experience in stability, support, patrol, traffic control, vehicle searches and other skills needed for deployment in an urban environment.

“This exercise will improve the real-life operational skills of the unit,” said Kots. “And it will hopefully improve the public’s understanding of military operations.”

The pre-drill work with residents is as important at the drill itself.

“It will be important for us to gain the trust and confidence of the residents of Arcadia,” said Kots. “We will need to identify individuals that are willing to assist us in training by allowing us to search their homes and vehicles and to participate in role-playing.”

“We really want to get as much information out there as possible, because this operation could be pretty intrusive to the people of Arcadia.”

“”"teachers and the pledge

I am sure you are right that teachers are the source of this stupid pledge to Obama. But it does come from higher up in a more covert way. I am a teacher, and the thing that really gets me is those trainings we constantly have to go to in order to maintain our teaching certificate. Social engineering starts with education and with teachers, and teachers are forced to go through social engineering, which trickles down to the kids. It is all through the curriculum in teacher education (we are taught the most ridiculous things, like to never correct a kid who speaks improper English) and we are being bombarded with negative messages about whites. The whole socialist thing is heavily laced throughout teacher education (social justice, which means redistribution of wealth, is huge in teacher education, which we are then told to teach to kids).

Socialists and Marxists have grabbed our education system and have been feeding teachers propaganda for at least the last 40 years, which then goes into what we teach students, and then, ultimately, changes society. Obama, for exactly who he is, could NEVER have “won” this election if this had not been happening. Many of the awful things we are seeing today in politics would not be accepted, either.

This is a huge subject. I keep trying to tell people what’s going on; I feel like Paul Revere with no one listening. I think this happens for several reasons. One, most people who have been through it are taught not to see it. Two, most teachers have been indoctrinated so gradually that they don’t see it and, instead, are very good at perpetuating it. Three, the brainwashing involved ensures a barrier to hearing or perceiving this has happened (ever notice if you cross certain lines with liberals, they yell at you, stop listening, or hang up or walk away? This is such a universal response that it is predictable, for me).

Anyway, just wanted to comment that there is definitely a sinister element to this that underlies all such things as this pledge thing, and it is the biggest reason we are in the place we are today. It is frustrating and scary to be on the outside looking in, unable to get people to really see and understand what’s happened to our society. I think there are reasons I missed out on the brainwashing/social engineering (or, rather, got so little of it that I was able to escape it) and I can see that it is so powerful that it may be impossible to change, at this point.

Everything Obama is doing right now looks horrible and scary to me, but to the well-engineered, he appears to be brightening up the entire world with his great charm, his brilliance, and his wisdom.

Keep up the good work!”"

a conversation with my good buddy .

(08:12:54) hedi: sigh
(08:14:02) hedi: in the car saturday nite with veronica, she was bashing bush and blah blah blah, and i was like “I don’t think he was a good president, but I find it kind of funny that everyone who says that we need to be united and acting like one have been criticizing Bush for the past 8 years”
(08:14:15) hedi: she was like “but he was an idiot and everyone hates him”
(08:14:25) hedi: some people just will never get it lol
(08:14:49) paint: nope
(08:15:08) paint: i’m doing a lot of thinking i had people go like well obama is presnow yaddayada .
(08:15:16) paint: and you as bad as the libs foe bashing..
(08:15:18) paint: but i’m like..
(08:15:27) paint: i’m pointing out poor policy and agenda issues .
(08:15:47) paint: the libs at this time in Bush terms were calling for recounts STILL , and claiming a stolen election
(08:16:07) hedi: haha
(08:16:24) paint: i’m not claiming a stolen election,.. even though i still want to see a birth cert and his documents that show his citesenship
(08:16:31) paint: but i’m not making that my primary argument .
(08:17:00) paint: my primary argument is weather his directives are consitutional or the right thing for the country .
(08:17:07) paint: i’ll hold his feet to the fire over that .

which is why i’m honestly making a calander on google cal, to keep track of his executive orders . Bush even occasionally made a good decision. in photography we see it as a numbers game .. but the issues is , sometime it takes 300 crappy pictures to get one good one.. and kind of crappy ones being made right now are steering us towards a cliff .. and i’m ready to get off this speeding bus to socialism .

another friend said to day . and i like the wayu the put it so i’ll share :

people say :

“call your represintatives. “ “Write your congressmen.”
I tried that with all my might during the first “bailout scam” and was astonished to hear that so many other people were doing the very same thing. The amount of calls were reportedly 9 to 1 opposing the bailout across the nation. Those “in charge” responded with “they just don’t understand.” “ We are going to do this anyway.” “It’s for their own good.” I never felt like I was pissing in the wind as much as I did when I wrote and contacted my “representatives.”

i have to agree i did too.

and those of us who are represented by a member of the DNC, all got back, a caned email response , and we know because we compared the letters online . there was no listening or representation even though the people called with 9-1 against the bailout.. ..
