Back in Iraq days, we were with a group, BENS, and attended a Marines graduation. Extremely impressive. Afterward, we went on a grounds tour and to an indoor training area in the middle of the sand and hills.
Large buildings, 3D effects, the interior was set up like one would find in Iraqi streets. A 3D shoulder fired missile would fly past our shoulders and blow up beyond us. Huge boom. 3D bad guys would appear and the laser weapons we had were to shoot them. Really gave us a feeling of what our troops experience every day. Who's a good guy, who's trying to kill you and one has to be first to win.
Billions for Camp Pendleton property.
