They must have used a rig to haul all this stuff out.

No they weren't stolen, just lost.

The robbers would have to have proper "Credentials" to get to that armory. IIRC the 28th CAB is located near the flight facility and ID's are checked upon entry. Either current military ID or name on the access roster if civilian.

The fuel on the other hand would have to be pumped from the tanks from the fill port. The pumps require special keys, unless the BGs found one of these keys and figured out how to use them it would be difficult to "trick" the system.

IMHO, this was an inside job!!!!

The stuff was probably liberated for a unit party somewhere......

It shames me to say this, but fuel and food sounds like an AIRBORNE operation to me.

LOL! Yeah, can't deny it.

It was a joke. People get tired of eating berries, pine nuts, and grass. They start either buying food from locals or taking it from whomever. No deliveries. And unauthorized raids on friendlies well-known. It was just a joke

well anyone can just waltz right onto the damned base. we did some training there when I was at camp david. there was literally NO ONE to be found! an empty gate house up front, not so much as a single MP or even a civilian security guard on the whole miserable base.

out of three week long trips there, the only sign of intelligent life I ever witnessed was when 2 Warthogs buzzed our live fire range and let loose a few cannon bursts at some tank carcasses.
