Or smart Public Awareness/Info War. USMC TRUEX's are held in selected
urban areas yearly. USMC PAO in fact go out of their way via local
media outlets to inform the citizens of the exercises. They stop just
short of publishing freqs ! The MC needs "real" urban environments to
train in so they go out of their way to appease the local communities.
 During this towns TUREX in 2002, the Leathernecks choppered over some
CH-46's and Cobra's to 2 local high school football fields to meet the
local youth. The next day, they were seen doing blacked out
INFIL/EXFILs on and into an abandoned K-Mart...
