AP now reports that another 2500 marines are en route on USS Boxer and two other war ships.

This could indicate Trump will attempt to occupy the Strait of Hormuz.

@randahl I served as a Corpsman (Navy combat medic) with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) and deployed with the 7th Fleet amphibious assault fleet based out of Japan. I don't have current information, but based on my experience, the Marine detachment WILL make an amphibious assault landing.

@desertsquare @randahl are they skilled rock climbers? As I guess there will be much of that if they come the sea way...

@aho that LHA ship carrying the Marines has helicopters and landing craft capable transporting troops. I was on one just like it.

We can't let this happen. Like shooting sitting Ducks in a barrel of fish.

Or something.
