The NCR-IADS is part of the never ending Operation Noble Eagle, which was launched in response to the attacks of 11SEP2001. Operation Noble Eagle is co-commanded by NATO-Canada, but U.S. officials don’t want you to know that!

Noble Eagle falls under NorAD, which is actually a NATO-Canada commanded operation: WHY IS A P-M OF A BRITISH EMPIRE MEMBER NATION INSPECTING A U.S. MILITARY BASE IN COLORADO?

In September 2022, the Snake River Brigade’s 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team (CBCT) was busy in Texas, where it was transformed into Task Force Rattler, next stop Kuwait and Iraq.

The Army National Guard’s 116th CBCT is based in Idaho, but has units spread through Florida, Montana, Nevada and Oregon.

The 118th Infantry Regiment from South Carolina Army National Guard, as well as the 285th Medical Company from the Ohio Army National Guard, have joined with the 116th CBCT. They are all being deployed to relieve another 116th CBCT led unit which was deployed in November 2021.

It is all part of the ongoing Operation Spartan Shield. The U.S. Army side of Operation Spartan Shield is called Task Force Spartan, which is dependent upon part time Army National Guard and Army Reserve units. Task Force Rattler will be the second, back to back, 12 months deployment for the 116th CBCT.

Before they actually deploy to The Middle East, units must spend 45 days on Fort Bliss, Texas, conducting final deployment training, despite having trained in their home states for as long as two years, and very likely having been deployed many times before.

To make things more confusing, the U.S. Army evaluation team on Fort Bliss is not based in Texas. The U.S. Army evaluators are from the 189th Infantry Brigade Combined Arms Training Battalion, normally based on Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington.

Bombing Range Bats: Endangered bat nest found on U.S. Air Force base

Video January 5, 2020 Hutchins AAron

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced the discovery of the first natural Florida Bonneted Bat roost since 1979, on a U.S. Air Force (USAF) base!

Aline Morrow, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Biologist, happy to be in charge of researching the Bombing Range Bats. U.S. Air Force photo by Technical Sergeant Perry Aston, 19APR2019.

The Florida Bonneted Bat is considered one of the most endangered bats on the North American continent. The bat nest was found on Avon Park Air Force Bombing Range in 2014 (not even a year after the bat was officially declared endangered), yet its discovery has been kept relatively quiet since then.

Video interview, Aline Morrow explains the discovery:

Parts of Avon Park Range are also home to cattle allowed to graze as part of agreements with local ranchers. Along with intentional field burns, the grazing is hoped to reduce the chance of wildfires.

Expended practice bombs are collected and recycled.

According to USAF claims, the skeleton of the F-4 Phantom-2 is now intentionally missed by pilots dropping bombs, because they want what’s left to remain.

Besides being a bombing range, grazing land and animal preserve, Avon Park is on the verge of becoming a National Historic Place.

Archaeologists have been busy finding ‘ancient’ remains. Already a small storehouse of boxes of artifacts could qualify the range for the National Register of Historic Places.
