Okay, now I'm getting a headache - LOL! Just kidding. Yeah, I'm with you. I'd love to get some validation on the Frankfurt raid too. However, on the flip side, military ops being carried out by White Hats having sealed-tight/no leaks actually would be better in the long run for the potential success of a long-term mission. But that just may be my hopium filter/rose-tinted glasses talking there. ;-)

It does seem like "training exercises" are insanely overused excuses for live ops though. The most blatant example is that downtown spec ops raid of the condemned Guatemala museum in downtown L.A. where a bunch of Black Hawks landed on Wilshire Blvd. several years ago and hazmat-suited military personnel extracted large items out of the building after breaching it. All the while the news kept reporting that the military was "conducting a training exercise." Yeah, right.
