UPDATE:
The USS Bataan is still blacked out according to its FaceBook Page.
This is highly unusual. Whats more mystifying is that this simple problem has been ongoing since the 13th of this month.
Something is going on with the USS Bataan. What exactly I don't know but remember this post?
UPDATE 1:
Phil asked a very important question. He asked if the other ships in the Expeditionary Strike Group 2 were blacked out.
From what I gather from open sources is that the Group has split up. I'm going to burning up this computer tonight to try and nail down exact locations. One thing though. Bataan is waaaay ahead of the curve when it comes to social networking. LSD 41 has updated its website since Oct 2010 and the Mesa Verde is still trying to get its act together (or so it appears online). More info to you when I get it.
could we be preparing the evacuate personnel? we have an embassy in syria? maybe we have special ops we need to get out or inserting?
ReplyDeleteyou don't need an amphibious assault ship to rescue personnel.
ReplyDeleteif we're talking about doing an evacuation of citizens then you would want the cooperation of the host country. this is foolishness in a handbag if its about something so simple.
this is about a larger military operation thats being planned.
sorry Joe, but your socialist friends are planning another military action based solely on emotion.
they even refuse to acknowledge that the "arab spring' isn't about freedom, its about rising food prices that were caused by globalization and the need to make food into gasoline....oh wait you're an enviromental nut too right????
Sol, do you know if it's just the Bataan that's blacked out? Or are there other ships in the region that have been blacked out as well?
ReplyDeletethats a good question Phil but the thing is this. according to the rather stimulating report from Debka File, the only ship thats going to be going into action is the Bataan.
ReplyDeleteso to answer your question...i don't know. my focus has been fixed on the Bataan only.
