Hunter AAF and Fort Stewart Exercise

There is an exercise of some sort going on at Hunter AAF and Fort Stewart. I started hearing the activity on Thursday night and it has been on each night since, including last night. Most of the activity is UHF milair encrypted, but some of it has been in the clear. Participants include A-10s that seem to be from the 23rd Wing, an AC-130, an MC-130, and several C-17s all of which are using callsigns that change daily. Additionally, the A-10s have aerial refueled several times each night in the "Nicole" AR track, which they have accessed via 380.025 (Savannah Approach) and 363.200 (Jax Center Allendale)
