"Seems like the weather is unnecessarily good."

August, Miami International Airport.

The sky above the large city, closer to the equator than anywhere else in the United States, was exceptionally clear. It felt as though the sky had a hole in it. However, from that hole, instead of raindrops, an incredibly powerful sunlight was leaking through.

Yet, under that sky, day and night were marked by heavy explosions reverberating throughout the greater Miami area.

It was inevitable. Numerous aircraft—F-35Cs, F-35Bs, B-1B Lancers, A-10 Warthogs, Apache attack helicopters—flew across the sky at irregular intervals, dropping their bombs.

But there was also another, somewhat 'less' irregular sound. Soldiers stationed in places safe from bombings and artillery fire, including U.S. Marines and the Florida and Georgia National Guard, had brought enormous loudspeakers and were broadcasting propaganda at regular intervals.

The broadcasts urging surrender were translated into Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, English, and various other languages, and were heard several times a day. This was particularly directed at the Latin American Allied forces gathered around downtown Miami.
