Maybe US Navy T-34s out of Oceana?????

Nope, you're right about being E-2Ds. VAW-126

That CLOSEOUT61 flight is maybe 169063. Now up as CLOSEOUT64.

1920z Central NC
379.825 VULTURE wkg RAIDER 11 & WHISKEY 21

Who are the players and what are the freqs for? Most of us aren't familiar with the NC stuff because it's out of range.

ENERGY16 N2316 is operating south of Wallops and N130RL is off the coast. Maybe related to the launch.

1758- They've cleared out, RTB. Is it done or aborted?

1904 local DECOY-99 calling BISON-33 on A/R 235.100 no joy so far. Bison appears now just on racetrack in upstate NY.
Oddball name McGuire KC-10's going offshore NJ. LARD 33 and AHART45.
A pair of Del ANG C-130's up A/A squad freq 343.000.. One asks other if he has A/A Tacan on and reply
is yes we are 29Y.
Couple fighters went offshore after GK 249.800 push 312.200.. didn't have that one or been a long time on that.
1915 local DECOY-99 C-17 90-0532 giving up and turning back Southbound.. Sounds like miscom on this A/R.
1925 DECOY-99 turns back North still calling BISON-33 on 235.100

Looks like another weekend at home for POTUS
Understand Capitol Hill closed Thursday due to threat from some crazy group?
I'm not understanding that alert.. Sounds like BS DC alarmist propaganda.
Everyone wants to be the the victim these days from Congress to Dr Suess books.
I think lockdown virus crap has gotten some folks acting crazy.
