The #US military is planning a permanent war-ready #weaponsstockpile for its #MarineCorps in #Victoria.
The development of the stockpile, a first for the Marine Corps in #Australia, comes as the #UnitedStates is keen to leverage the continent’s strategic location in the South Pacific to counter #China’s rapid military build-up, analysts said.
Documents show advanced planning for US$30m allocated to build warehouses & offices in Victoria for “critical forward provisioning”. #auspol #USPol
