Damn straight. I'm out of McDill AFB. We're just heading up the collection efforts ISO the National Guard heading to the area. If the situation calls for it, we're preparing to be involved in a more direct role. But, I doubt that'll happen.

 

 

I did some training at MacDill AFB. At least you're not sitting on your ass at base. Stay safe.

I'll just be out of Saint Louis' Airport. So, I'll be sitting there instead. But, thanks anyway!

All I'm saying is that there is a law that specifically says the military cannot do that.

 

Like I said, we're not going out on our own helping them. We're attached directly with an officer. As in an officer of the agency/department we're with is never more than like 10 feet off. They actually do the "official" arresting. We're nothing more than extra man power and hands.

I would give anything to be there or anywhere else instead of saluting officers 50 times a day inhaling jet fuel vapor!

Maybe it is some weird program I haven't heard of. I know when I lived in Tampa the security forces guys working in MacDill would never leave the post and of course being stationed here in Germany our MPs would never dream of trying to enforce laws off post.

I can't speak for everyone, so maybe it's just certain bases. But I know in tech school they use the opportunity to help with the training. And where I'm stationed at Andrews AFB there's a big opportunity to get out and work with local agencies.
