'Battle of the Bay' underway in Tampa as part of military showcase



You might hear explosions, simulated gunfire and helicopters if you are near the Tampa Convention Center on Wednesday.

The U.S. Special Operations Command is hosting a military showcase from noon to 1 p.m. Wednesday in downtown Tampa.

The public is encouraged to attend and watch this “rare display of military-tactical-might.” The event called “Battle of the Bay” is part of the Special Operations Forces Week annual conference with more than 170 service members taking part in a mock scenario defending Tampa from invaders.

  1. I Enjoyed My Time Living in Tampa ( Hillsborough County), Florida and I Loved The Biannual Static Line Display Put On By The United States Special Operations Command ( USSOCOM). I 🤞 I Was Back There Again To Watch This Live and Already in Progress. OOH RAH SOCOM ‼️

  2. Special forces was invented to fight proxy wars and “brushfire”wars. Ww3 will kill most or all of these guys. They will be deployed incorrectly, because they arent suited for high intensity conflict.
