6. Again, spooked, a special for you

"Think of the wargames this way:
they are a perfect way of making sure interceptors aren't there to intercept the 9/11 jets even if by chance"

N O T A T A L L

A pair of F-16 fighters with the mission of airpolicing has this mission 24 hours a day, day by day.

They are on sentry.

they are not on exercises. No and never. It is like a fire brigade: there are peopl and cars in a "ready" position. Even when 90% of the colleagues have their annual meting with the families.

do not mix it up. No wargame can even be a lame excuse for not being on sentry. The airspace over Washington, the airspace in the most crowded part of the worlds aisspaces over the very heart of the most pwerfull nation is, was and will be perfectly protected. Except when the order comes to stand down and NOT to follow the SOPs.
