Motorcade began rolling at about 5:50pm, next stop expected to be Wilmington

Appears N296PD acting as Huntsman for trip south, no Delaware helo seen, be interesting to see if Philly PD crosses state lines.

Phila PD helo - to Delaware and back to Philadelphia

I am work today and the Northern loop of the tanker orbit is going over my location. I am trying to get a photo.

Is it know where the fighters are from?

Sorry about so many questions. Just getting started mil monitoring!

Will the CAP run from sunrise to sunset?

Also am I correct with the thought that Military Aircraft will communicate with ATRCC on UHF?
Yea! Typically CAP will run from sun up to sun down or slightly before / after. The fighters have been using UHF and will typically communicate to tanker / Huntress on UHF as well.

NIGHTHAWK 31 heard in Kentucky with a call for weather on 255.4, no answer.

Sounded like a flight of four helos westbound at 1015 am EDT. Air to air Marine talk on 273.95 about partying on cross country flights at 'HMX' and other squadrons. Cop cars at the O' Club and DUIs. They are flying VFR so look out for the TFR at Fort Knox.

Listening to the clip again, they mention a previous squadron '364' which is probably VMM-364, an MV-22 Osprey squadron.

NOBLE-21,22 in the CAP A/A 268.525
Finally got an eyeball on NOBLE-21 flight as at late Sunset taking dog out heard them and
remembered not to look at directly at the sound but well ahead of the noise and there they were lit up in sunset beams overhead with
one trailing the other by a few hundred yards.. :)
Ticks me off I didn't have Cam with me but still cool.
