Secret service always arrives ahead of time .... scoping out routes to be avoided , etc when motoring the POTUS anywhere. They also have to scope out local trauma center to take him to if someone decided to take a shot at him. When i worked at our local Trauma center up north, we had to have an OR standing by at all times when the POTUS was in town

I was in Ocala and spotted this flying into Ocala International Airport. For some reason I don’t think it was John Travolta flying in.

The Osprey's (4 of them) were here last time Trump visited too, so I'm assuming they are a normal part of his advance party. We were on the third hole of the Tierra Del Sol course last time and they went right over us on their way to the Polo Fields. Impressive.

McDill air base is pretty close. I know they have Blackhawks there. Used to buzz my house at the beach

Just to set the record straight, the helicopter is a Sikorsky CH-53. And the helicopter is only Marine One when POTUS is onboard. Also the Presidential Helicopter is a Sikorsky VH-3D

They landed at The Polo Field to set up for Trump’s rally this afternoon.

There is a show going on Saturday at Paquetts tractor place on US44. It is an all day show to raise money for veterans living in the Ocala forest. It will feature military equipment.

Hate to get off track:
But, Why are Veterans living in the forest with many benefits for those Hero's in need?

The Ocala National forest has a bombing range and areas they use for monthly reserve training. Plus Camp Blanding is up there used for weekend reserve warriors. Been that way for decades. Nothing new, they have flown over this area forever, remember most of Sumter county was always cattle ranches and swamp. We’re paying to living in the Chitty chatty swamp

Saw 4 of them yesterday flying low over the Mallory postal station. It was awesome.

[pcacace]

For sure!

Some prefer to be “homeless” because of PTSD etc.
