Some incursions are benign, such as those involving people who say they are following Google Maps to direct them to the nearest McDonalds or Burger King, which happens to be on a nearby military base. Others appeared to be more troubling, people familiar with the review said.
That is a pretty brazen approach bordering on comedy. Also TIL sensitive American military bases have hotels and restaurants open to the public.
I would say they're not open to the public if they're behind a security checkpoint. They exist for the comfort and use of people who live on base and for those who are immediate family of service members and other visitors who have reason to be on-base.
Yeah, no one actually got on base by saying they were trying to go to Burger King. You have to actually have the ability to enter that base to use any facilities. The article states the only people who actually made it on base were those who sped past the gate.... which depending on security levels could lead to you getting lit up by a MP unit.
Ah, this makes more sense.
Googling for the nearest burger then trying to drive into a military base could be either a genuine accident, or an espionnage operation looking for plausible deniability.
Either way, these agencies are doing their job by investigating.
I guess it could be a genuine accident. But I mean, in most American cities it is not challenging to find burgers and hotels haha
