SKY SOLDIERS TO DROP IN ON THE GRAND STRAND

The Paratroopers are expected to accomplish their mission by 6 June 2010 (D-day anniversary). A recon company (SC Chapter 30, led by retired LTC. Hal Nobles) has moved in, secured high ground and set up base camp at Avista Resort located at coordinates 300 North Ocean Boulevard, North Myrtle Beach, SC 29852.
