Interesting.
We have the Riverine escorting an LPD into port.
Hmmm....we have Harbor security that's suppose to do that and they're co-located inside NECC.
We have US Marines that can do that from attached UH-1Y's and AH-1Z's...
My main point is this. We're seeing some pretty extreme mission creep on the side of Riverine and I don't understand why its being allowed.
I've said before and I'll say again. If Riverine want to get into the fight then they need to petition to get to the Horn of Africa and go after Pirates. If they want to get into the fight then they need to get out to Japan and especially the Philippines and start patrolling between islands.
But I don't think its about getting into the fight...It looks like they'd rather get into the news.
