Quoted:
One afternoon several years ago, I was on Casper Mountain, just south of my hometown of Casper, Wyoming, just wandering around and taking some pictures. I was off the trail I was following by quite a ways and in deep timber. I turned to head back to the trail and came upon a barbed wire fence. The area it fenced in was no more than 40ft by 40ft and I could see almost all of it. The easiest way back to the trail was over the fence, so I stepped over it. As I turned around, I couldn't help but notice two rifles pointed at my head. Two uniformed soldiers ordered me back over the fence, I climbed back over and when I turned back to apologize, there was nothing there but forest and a small fenced in area.
Similar story different location.
Just outside Dahlonega, GA is 'Frank D Merrill finishing school' as a few locals called it. I'm sure some ranger types will clarify.
During one long overnight/camping mountain bike ride in the near by national forest... I rode past 4 heavily loaded Rangers as I was going down hill I sang out loud..."boom shakalaka...boom shakalaka...what kinda training is that?" One of the Rangers sang out "Army training sir". I about crashed I was laughing so hard.
Other times I have run into squads creeping around the woods. This time they were all camoed up, lightly loaded and moving a few feet at a time. One guy moves than another, then the next guy and so on. Only one moving at a time. Real cautious about their moves. They were real smooth until they angled toward MY tree. Yep I was in the woods bow hunting. I was standing stock still next to a tree over looking a creek bed waiting for a deer to cross, just like my trail cam pix. I thought the sound was a deer coming my way so I just froze. Those 4 guys crossed the creek 15 yards in front of me w/o seeing me. I started to speak up but I was armed w/ just a bow to their 4 m16's. I let them ease on out before I slipped out my self.
