Marines Raid Water Park in Urban-Assault

The raid was successful, but I was told by an informed source QUOTE:

The USMC LNO refused comments because of an ongoing investigation.

The FBI is waiting on a warrant, they filed for in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, to determine if there was any Russian collusion.

Marines Raid Water Park in Urban-Assault Training Held in Hawaii for 1st Time
31 Jan 2019, Stars and Stripes | By Wyatt Olson

FORT SHAFTER, Hawaii -- On a typical day, thrill-seekers slide the likes of Tornado, Volcano Express and Big Kahuna at the Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii water park in suburban Honolulu.

But Tuesday night after visitors had left for the day, the deserted 25-acre park was the scene of a mock raid by Marines and sailors with the Okinawa-based 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, joined by local FBI agents and officers with the Honolulu Police Department.

The Maritime Raid Force -- composed of roughly two Marine Corps platoons and almost a dozen FBI agents -- stealthily breached the meeting site of a "high-value target," capturing a quarry they'd hunted for days.

Marine and FBI snipers atop the towering Tornado ride(c ref) fired live rounds into an enemy silhouette target placed in the center of the park
-- four-out-of-four shots to the head.

The raid concluded an 11-day Realistic Urban Training Exercise, parts of which were held at Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Barbers Point Harbor, Dillingham Airfield and Dogs of War Airsoft Park and Proshop, which provides players with military simulation settings using BB-guns.

Here guests will spin around the Tornado’s funnel in a two or four person clover-leaf tube splashing back and forth through the menacing, swirling water before being released into the calm shallows below. No need to chase the storm as this enormous thrill slide grabs adrenaline addicts for an extreme experience they won’t soon forget. Must be 48" or taller to go on this ride.

They probably got credit for an amphibious assault too.

I thought it was frowned upon for LEOs to train with military units after that little misunderstanding down in Waco.

Nope, SOCOM refined it and the permissions.
