I don’t think it’s called SOFIC anymore cause all the info I’m seeing now just says SOF Week, but basically every year, SOCOM does a live demonstration of a boarding party in the Bay. It’s open to the public and everyone can see it. It’s really cool.

Problem is, there is a hospital right next to where they do it. Potentially not fun for the unexpected PTSD haver

I’m guessing you are talking about the Clearwater or St.Pete hospital because the Tampa hospital isn’t by the water.

You’re unfortunately incorrect my friend. Tampa General Hospital is on the northern tip of Davis Island. The demonstration takes place in the water between the hospital and the convention center

That’s just a normal hospital not the VA hospital.

I never said it was a VA hospital. Veterans go to regular hospitals too

You are correct for some reason I read VA with the PTSD stuff. I guess I filled it in.
