What I’m about to share with you is not top secret.
But there were U.S. Army special operations soldiers lurking around Barstow, driving down our streets and we didn’t even know it.
Back on July 14, U.S. Army sfc. Ryan Sabin, with the 10th Special Forces Group, held a briefing at City Hall. He described special exercises throughout the High Desert area.
Sabin explained that most of the operations would take place while area residents were sleeping. Residents would probably hear helicopters roaming above. Other exercises would include two or three soldiers blending in with people inside a restaurant to link up. But he said if people witnessed anything obvious, the soldiers were not doing their job right and wouldl need more training.
Well, it all came full circle last Wednesday night when the U.S. Army held a joint forcible entry operation training exercise at Fort Irwin National Training Center called Operation Dragon Spear.
It put the Army’s finest weaponry on display during a land assault at sunset and an air assault in the early morning. Among the three-star and four-star generals, defense officials and Rep. Paul Cook were about a dozen media members.
I joined a photographer to represent the Desert Dispatch. The Riverside Press Enterprise sent a reporter and photographer as well. A reporter from Army News was a witness.
And Vice.com sent a large crew. On its website, Vice calls itself an ever-expanding nebula of immersive investigative journalism. Besides covering the exercise, Vice also streamed the event live on its website.
