US troops could deploy to Ukraine to assist in an evacuation of US citizens if Russia invades? Now we know why the 101st got put on alert...

 

News that US troops could deploy to Ukraine to assist in an evacuation of US citizens if Russia invades was floated by the CJCS.

At least we know why the 101st got put on alert.

Can you imagine what a shit show that would be?  Can you imagine how EVERY Russian anti-air system operator will be itching like he has a rash to shoot down one of those helos?

Can you imagine how absolutely fucked up it would be to try to corral civilians onboard military aircraft while you're being mortared to hell....much less if they decide to turn loose a couple of batteries of MLRS?

Sometimes I think Pentagon planners read too much Tom Clancy!

Regardless its not gonna happen.  The 101st is HEAVY!  Moving them to theater is gonna take more than a few fast transport ships.  If invasion was imminent then they'd need to be floating now to do the do.

Once there they can make things happen because of their tactical mobility and hopefully if called to actually pull off that mission from hell they'd work it out diplomatically so they wouldn't end up filling body bags.

But to think that they're actually considering it...that the CJCS actually mentioned it is a MIND FUCK!

God save us.

God save our Soldiers.
