Seems like the military in the US are running training exercises involving fights against "freedom fighters". They obviously are expecting major unrest in the near future.

Does it mean they're actually training in something other than being "Woke"?

Whatever are you implying?

Per your article, the exercise serves as a final test for the Special Forces Qualification Course. It is not anything "new". All military branches and law enforcement units train for all types of scenarios. It is what they do. And these specific exercises in N.C. are specifically nothing "new" or out of the ordinary.

“To add realism of the exercise, civilian volunteers throughout the state act as role players. Participation by these volunteers is crucial to the success of this training, and PAST trainees attest to the realism they add to the exercise. "

The only thing that is somewhat new, apparently, is it is now required that advance public notice of training exercises be provided after a soldier was killed and another wounded in 2002 when a N.C. county sheriff’s deputy mistook these exercises for criminal activity...per your article.

This is Robin Sage. It’s been conducted regularly since the 70s as the culminating training event for new Special Forces personnel. Definitely nothing new or unusual.

Regardless, it is time to start cutting the military's budget. When they go woke, they have too much largesse and you don't want them having more.

Quote:
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some fifty miles of concrete pavement. We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people.

This is, I repeat, the best way of life to be found on the road the world has been taking. This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron. These plain and cruel truths define the peril and point the hope that come with this spring of 1953.
-Eisenhower

Seems some are ignorantly falling right into their role and accepting their assignment this A.M. Tragic are our divisive times brought on by gossip, innuendo and manufactured angst, contrived paranoia and fear mongering to create chaos and discord in these United States of America.
