San Antonio has a big CIA presence, I remember reading something recently in a foia document I believe. Like they literally have a secret base/station from what I was reading
San Antonio area resident here. So I did a little more checking on this. It seems that this practice drill was announced on social media and around the neighborhoods before it started. But, the democrat representatives are complaining that they didn't get notice. The location of the exercise is close to Ft Sam Houston, which is a large Army Base. Ft Sam is a medical base, some IT, some intelligence. BUT The unit training is from Ft Bragg, NC
"The exercises will go from around 6 p.m. to 3 a.m. Monday through Friday, said Maj. Mike Burns, a spokesman for the Fort-Bragg, N.C.-based command.
It will involve roughly 100 soldiers, including support personnel, using an unspecified number of UH-60 Black Hawk, CH-47 Chinook and MH-6M Little Bird helicopters."
Fort Bragg houses the XVIII Airborne Corps and the 82nd Airborne Division, the U.S. Army Special Operations Command, and the U.S. Army Parachute Team (the Golden Knights).
So Army Special ops came from North Carolina to San Antonio to practice Special Ops. This is getting interesting.
The article mentioned a quote from someone who lives on Hays Street. I can't send a picture, but Hays Street runs east and west from the AT&T Center (where the Spurs play) over to the downtown/riverwalk area. And the Alamodome is near there too. I would imagine the Riverwalk area has tons of tunnels, etc.
That area of SA is really poor, you can only go down there during the day and if you go at night you can only go to redeveloped areas. I work kind of near there sometimes, and there is a lot of "street business" going on around there.
Also lots of warehouses, industrial, the jail compund is near there, the very large homeless shelter is near there. It's not a nice area. That area is in close proximity to IH10 (runs from Santa Monica, CA to Jacksonville, FL), IH35 (runs from Laredo to Duluth, right on Lake Superior) and IH37 (runs from San Antonio to Corpus.) That's a pretty interesting confluence of highways. Would be a convenient location for nefarious activities.
It wouldn't surprise me one bit if this is a cover for taking down a criminal operation. I would bet that whatever happened is already over, but I'm going to keep my eyes open for any local news. I wouldn't really hear about any of this personally since I'm not involved in the drug or human trafficking community!
Edit to add: This exercise began on 8/8/22, the same day as Mar-A-Lago was "raided." Look here, not there! u/LoneWulfu/SemperSupra

Reminds me of another military exercise in California.
Hmmmm

The NSA has a facility here too. It's not on any of the big bases, somewhere toward downtown.

1 x H60 over the city of San Antonio at 750' currently, Shiner11
That’s unsettling.
Without telling anyone? That's a damned good way to get shot and/or shot at.
Nothing showing on adsb.
Why in the hell do they need to train to take small towns? Large cities I get but small Republican cities?
San Antonio is neither small nor Republican (very corrupt and shady). Maybe ‘training exercises’ keeps the masses calm and oblivious.
Thanks. I figure it was one of us.
Is this how they will take our guns? I mean 5million rounds to the IRS and agents must be willing to shoot to kill if necessary.
Anybody know of DS assets in San Antonio? 🤔
San Antonio is MK ground zero. I'm sure there's plentiful.
😎👍
