A grave concern has just come to me. Yes, I understand about all the FEMA and DHS type stuff that goes on. I'm now wondering how small-scale it gets.
So, there is a property of about 20 acres which, if I remain in the U. S., I may be relegated to inhabit for the back end of my life. It's good land near the headwaters of a modestly-sized river. The general area has long been used for military survival training. The exercise where a group of soldiers is dropped off without food in an area where they have no jurisdiction, and have to survive their way back to a rally point. Normal, no worries.
Recently, past few weeks suddenly it has become a scene for a whole lot of live fire. Semi auto from what I myself have heard and possibly artillery from what I've been told.
What happened is the next door neighbor who had about 20 acres, sold his property. Not exactly sure to whom yet. It's an ordinary house in the woods. What's happened so far is that a heavy gate with no identifying marks has been installed at the end of the driveway. Last weekend at about one in the morning, a large truck went up there and was locked out. The driver could be heard calling or radioing for someone to unlock the gate. Eventually another truck came along and let them in, and when they got to the house, they were heard unloading a cargo of large metal objects.
Does this sound like something the Department of Defense does? Without any "Keep Out" or "Property of" signage posted, would it be a huge risk to try to get a closer look at the stuff? Is such a facility likely to already have sensors that can detect a human before they get close? I'm far less concerned about the Army or Marines that if it is a secretive outfit from the Executive branch. And I'm guessing DoD would use appropriate markings and obvious military vehicles. So far it's all unmarked.
