Oman has announced a complete pull back of all forces in Yemen. PM sent private apology to the CoC Ambassador for the armed conflict.

Vehicles training South of Yer Bouti by about 40km at Army Ft. Kick-Butt ( translated to kick he Bouti â€˜s as-s, thatâ€™s the rumor, but no truth to it at all).

.
The Wolf, on the Wolfâ€™s Liar.
CNNN has received information that a Canadian agency within the State Dept has paid the Yemenis $35 for the day to protest. They hired other mid eastern people to protest at the same rate. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were provided in addition to the voucher to Hortonâ€™s Restaurants. Tomorrow, the protests are expected to double or triple to get the give-away. If this keeps up, the State Dept. budget may be flat, going into the red with 8 months to go.
. As for the incident on the ROD carrier, those spoiled, self-serving Canadian guests of ROD conducted a muntiny on the ship. But for a country that thrives on protests vs. working to develop solutions one should not expect better.
. Australia and New Zealand have decided to not participate in Canadaâ€™s approach and vision. PM Stansel said it is firm in the Aussie cabinet, that Canada has not learned much or anything about working with other countries. We will still work with CoC and their members. The base at Darwin that CoC has been using has demonstrated great partnership and mutual desire to work together.

West Sahara
Patrol and observation into YB. A Predator drone detected some SAM systems in YB. A follow up stealthy drone was sent to investigate.

The buildup by YB continues, flaunting their rebellion against UIN resolution of no arms buildup and acquisition of military items that advance the capability to wage aggressive war.

Rest assured Chris the airspace above your training is safe and secure.
In fact anything 10 meters above the ground and 100Km from the Yer Bouti border is well safe and secure.
Higher altitudes ie AWACS, Recon and tanker territory is safe and secure out to almost 200Km to about 75%.

Good, thatâ€™s what I was thinking. Certainly after reading some other stuff.

The Commonwealth has offered to assist with Venezuela Relief and to work to stop Al-Kabab by communicating with the US. Lt. Gen. Clark replied that the CoC is welcome to setup medical/surgery stations at Ft Randolph, to be ready to provide those services if needed in Panama. It is located on the eastern end of the Panama Water Way. At this juncture, no other expectations or needs are contemplated by the CoC.

The Commonwealth acquired some military vehicles to defend the Commonwealth.
Just received AAV7 and M60A1 and A3. All will be worked on at the rework facility to upgrade to A3 standard or A3+ standard.

The CoC medical group is packing the tents, back to the ship to move to Port of Spain. A Type 23 Frigate is the escort for the medical and supply ship.
Grenada will serve as a logistics base once it is set up for the CoC, even though further away than T&T to Venezuela.

Chris, I see that your tanks are almost all M60 hulls with M48 turrets, some with M60 cupola. I am interested in acquiring them.

panzergator · Post by **panzergator** » Sat Mar 23, 2019 5:38 am

And if you have any more like that, particularly the old M48 turrets with the separately-molded cupola, I would be interested in those, too.

I should add that I would buy M48A5s and convert the cupolas, but I just spent 3 days in ONE turret and I just don't see doing 53 more. Too damned difficult. Since this original model could be found scattered in A1 units at least as late as 1976, I may have to scatter a few in my early 70s battalions, rather than have a full, separate battalion.I

If GHQ made the M60, I would happily buy them.

In Senegal, mortar, artillery, and rockets rounds have been fired from the north from The Gambia and from the south Guinea-Bissau. The firing took place simultaneously, which indicates a planned attack upon the citizen of Senegal and the Commonwealth.
. The military forces were targeted based upon the detection and the location of concentrated fire effect upon an established communication post. 8 soldiers have left this world, 22 more are receiving medical attention. There has not been any military response at this time.
