Anyone else see that group of 9 military helicopters fly over just before noon? Pretty impressive group of what looked like some medical choppers (looked like Bell or Huey) and about 5 attack helicopters (Apache or Cobra?). Here are some pics:![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() State of the military or military state? |

by Erik on 10/2/2008 @ 1:01pm | They look like Black Helicopters: The concept of black helicopters became popular in the United States militia movement, and in associated political circles, in the 1990s as an alleged symbol and warning sign of a conspiratorial totalitarian military takeover of part or all of the United States. Rumors would circulate that, for instance, the United Nations patrolled the US with black helicopters, or that federal agents used black helicopters to enforce wildlife laws. The concept springs from the basic truth that many government agencies and corporations do use helicopters, and that some of these helicopters are dark-colored or black. For instance, dark-colored military helicopters were deployed in the standoff at Ruby Ridge.[1] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_helicopter |

[@Erik] There you go again :-) (The Cobras look O.D. on my screen.) The other day, groups of C-17's were doing some inpressive maneuvers. |
