[MilCom] MIL: 11175.0 USB - DUMPLING; BIG TOWN; and FORCEOUT

[Jeff Haverlah]

0130z  01 Feb 26

UTC 31 Jan 26

Note the 3 blocks of NCS restoral sessions. Note that each block gives the
appearance of being initiated by a 5X series order. Keeping in mind
correlation is not causation, such order associations (either beginning or
"ending" a series) are not consistently there but it may be hinted at since
Oct 2024. Today's activity was more than a "hint" IMO. U3 strings have long
been associated with some P1 sessions, in particular "FOR" associated P1
strings but with longer sessions as well.
