MONTEREY, Calif. (AP) -- Hundreds of Marines practiced rescuing a city
threatened by chemical terrorism Saturday outside the view of dozens of
protesters who said the military exercise might harm Monterey Bay wildlife.
The controversial military exercise, known as Urban Warrior, was launched
without the beachfront invasion originally planned. As an early morning fog
cleared off Monterey Bay, helicopters transported troops in ships offshore to
the airport, where they were whisked to exercise sites by bus.
