Why is the DC shooter targeting USMC and Coast Guard buildings?

The Pentagon, the USMC Museum, and a shore station for recruitment of the Guard.

I do not take anything for granted yet. Like previous DC Sniper that person makes a mistake and being caught, so they ask him.

Anyone out there who is an Atomic Vet from the 1952 "Tumbler Snapper" tests at Frenchman's Flat near Vegas?

My father was a photgrapher USMC. They tore out a troop transport headed for Korea in 1952. They asked him to choose an assistant. He chose his best friend. He saved his life. Not one of his section Raiders Puller returned live from Korea.

Check with the museum guide. They have a whole list of people who participated in these tests. I know. I live ten minutes east of the museum and participated in many events there. I even won a few points. Thank you for your donation.

I was not an amtracker, but I believe that the LVT-1 first saw combat use at the Tarawa invasion. The result was that later waves of troops had to get off their landing craft at the reef and wade hundreds of yards through heavy fire to the beach. To be precise, the first combat landings aided by LVTs were at Tulagi, across the sound from Guadalcanal. The LVT 1 was NOT available for the landing at Guadalcanal....
