Rumor, Rumor, on the wall

So, hello again.
As some of you may have heard, I'm actually in the USAF.
I've kinda been hearing some odd rumors for the past couple of weeks, and for the most part, they're rumors. Probably. I don't know. As things stand, they don't compromise security or any active operations in anyway... That I know of.
So, because it shouldn't be important, and might not even be true, I can share some of it with you.
Also, as you all probably guessed, they're rumors about weird things. As in... well, I don't what to call it. Multiversal stuff?
Let's just say they're things you may find relevant.
First up on the grapevine, is the Great Gummi Custody Battle. The Airforce is arguing with the Navy on who gets jurisdiction, out in your guy's neck of the woods. This is kind of important, but it's basically politics. Yeah, it's gonna shape the future. But for now, it's basically bickering. No matter what though, this'll probably be something you're gonna want to keep an eye on, anyway. I think the Air Force currently has the edge, but I wouldn't count the Navy out just yet.
Next, the establishment of a base off-world... And I just felt like I read something out a Star Gate script. Anyway, this is something that's gonna depend on who get the shiny gummi-space permission slip. I've heard some spots suggested, Twilight Town, Traverse, Disney Castle, Radiant Garden. Well, I don't think that last one's there right now, but I've heard some one's organizing something to fix that. How's that going anyway?
Third big rumor, and I only heard this one recently. Dedicated anti-Heartless units. Special Forces tasked with hunting creatures of Darkness. I wouldn't sink alot of thought into this one. It's probably just some one blowing smoke. But, I'd listen for gun-fire and be careful if I were you guys, ok?
Here's an especially weird one for you guys, though: Apparently some general is organizing a Joint Forces Magi-Unit. In terms of credibility, I'd put this rumor above Area 51, but below Nessie. I mean, I'd start to take it seriously if it was going to be an Army, or Marine unit, but a Joint one? It's hard to get solid cooperation between services sharing a BASE, and who's jobs have them working together closely. Even then, they're still different units. A single JOINT unit? Oi, the paperwork snafu's alone would give people head aches, nevermind the culture clashing.
And to close up this little bit of rumor mongering, there's talk about modding the F-35 to be able to hand gummi-space. I doubt this one too. You don't want to know how much money's already been sunk into development of the F-35. I mean, later they might make another model of it that CAN do G-space, but they're kind of behind schedule already. They need to finish the tweaking so that they can the fully functioning version ready for mass production. Then they can worry about modding it once they have it going.
Anyway, that's pretty much everything interesting that I can tell you guys. Thoughts on any of this?
((OK, Rumors are rumors. I've talked with the Mods a little bit about some of them, but we never made plans. So, these may be true. Or, they might not be. They're rumors, after all.))E
