The US military is playing soldier in Franklin County and other areas of North Florida right now in a training program known as Operation emerald Warrior.
The U.S. Special Operations Command-sponsored mission rehearsal exercise involves soldiers from various parts of the armed services as well as officers with the FBI and DEA.
The exercise is being held through March 11th in multiple states and training sites throughout the southeast including Tate’s Hell in Franklin County.
The training will include nearly 2000 soldiers as well as tanks and helicopters.
This is the second time Franklin County has served as a training ground for Exercise Emerald Warrior – the training was held here last year also.
County planner Alan Pierce said the public shouldn’t even notice the exercises and if all goes properly the public will never see anything.
