US STATES TO HOST SIMULATED ‘GUERILLA WAR’

Residents in two US states were told to watch out for “occasional flares” and
mock gunfire as the military gears up for “realistic” combat drills

The US military is set to hold expansive combat drills across North and South
Carolina, warning residents that special operations trainees may fire off blank
rounds and flares while simulating battle against “guerrilla” forces.

Dubbed ‘Robin Sage’, the “unconventional warfare exercise” will be held between
January 22 and February 4 on private land in dozens of counties in the south,
the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School said in a statement cited
by local media. 

The drill will stage a mock fight with a “resistance movement” made up of
“guerrilla freedom fighters” in the fictional nation of “Pineland,” the warfare
center said, noting they will act as “realistic opposing forces” to the special
ops candidates. Robin Sage serves as the final test in the elite Special Forces
Qualification Course, an intensive training program for the Army’s Green
Berets. 

Trainees will be placed in an environment of “political instability
characterized by armed conflict,” which will force soldiers to “analyze and
solve problems” in a “real-world” setting – all the while facing down
“guerrillas” selected from Fort Bragg, as well as some specially trained
civilian volunteers who will act as “role players” to add “realism” to the
drill.

concerns – reports

The special warfare center was quick to warn that “residents may hear blank
gunfire and see occasional flares” during the exercise, adding that “controls
are in place to ensure there is no risk to persons or property.” Though
variations of the Robin Sage drill have been held since 1974, a previous
iteration in 2002 saw a local sheriff’s deputy fatally shoot one soldier and
seriously wound another, mistaking them for criminals. Since then, the military
has prioritized advance public notice of the combat simulation in an effort to
avoid similar tragedies, telling any concerned residents to “contact local law
enforcement officials, who will immediately contact exercise control
officials.” 

Other safety measures to be implemented for this year’s drill include formal
written notification to local police and sheriff’s departments and thorough
briefing to all participants on what to do if they make contact with law
enforcement, while students will also wear “distinctive” armbands to show they
are taking part in the exercise.

While the special forces school did not specify exact locations where the drill
will be held, it noted that it would take place across 25 counties in North
Carolina – including Wake County, its largest region by population – as well as
three others in South Carolina.
