Kinda standard thing really, especially if the troops are acting rowdy in town.

i didn't realize military troops could patrol civilian areas without martial law
Sort of. They technically have no police powers, even with military members. They can however make legal orders to soldiers.
Nothing like martial law at all. Even if the SNCOs weren't with the police, they still have the legal military authority to give orders off base to members outside their command.

this used to happen all the time at atlantic beach, NC area. But these were armed MPs who could and would arrest intoxicated marines.
A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.
i don't care where this originated....its wrong. our military has no jurisdiction in civilian areas. they should not be patrolling at all. if they came across military persons involved in a crime, they have no authority to "do" anything....other than what a normal civilian can do.
