[quote:Anonymous Coward 76247621:MV80NTYwNTUwXzgzMTAzMTI5XzNEMTQ5MzA2] [quote:Anonymous Coward 76247621:MV80NTYwNTUwXzgzMTAzMTIzX0REQzE3QTE4] [quote:DuckNCover:MV80NTYwNTUwXzgzMTAwOTk2XzUyRjlBOTBB] Could it be stationed there to take out any cruise missiles launched from the Gulf of Mexico... This is just one Patriot Missile Battery. Would be interesting if it were occurring at other small regional airports that ring the Gulf of Mexico... Just imagine Tankers or Merchant ships launching cruise missiles (Club-K) off their decks. It would be a very short response time before they hit their intended targets. If the military positions enough of these missile batteries, in key areas, it could provide a small level of protection and limit the damage done by a cruise missile attack...

Original Message
Apparently, very few people, if anyone, at Easterwood Airport in College Station, Texas knew exactly what was going on with the sudden deployment of the Army's preeminent air defense system, either.
"Nobody knows anything, they just showed up" one commercial pilot that flies in and out of Easterwood daily told The War Zone.
