[HHI944]

I took my dog for a walk on the beach about an hour ago. Everything was normal for the first .5 miles, then I noticed a silhouette dart from the dunes back into the plantation. I didn't think much of it, between the dog and my .357 I can handle a wannabe burglar/mugger in these parts. At this time of night, I have a pretty clear view of the sky over MCAB Beaufort and I notice a chopper getting up IN A HURRY. Then I noticed it was coming my way, this is a little unusual as the residents b!tch and moan if they start doing night ops over the island too often. Then it turns it's spotlight on and starts sweeping the beach about .5 miles up. It finally gets to me and holds over me for several seconds before switching the spotlight off and hauling a$$ back. I decided to turn back at this point and as I'm turning I notice 3 figures on the back side of the dunes near a row of the more expensive homes in the plantation. I'm a little weirded out right now.
