U.S. Marines, Navy special ops, soldiers, local civilian police, and firefighters are teaming up for suppressing a "zombie invasion" in America. This will take place in San Diego on October 31.
These events are basically an excuse to practice martial law, give soldiers some practice in policing the homeland, and get local police departments warmed up to the idea.

"No one knows what the zombies will do in our scenario, but quite frankly no one knows what a terrorist will do," Barker said. "If a law enforcement officer sees a zombie and says, 'Freeze, get your hands in the air!' What's the zombie going to do? He's going to moan at you. If someone on PCP or some other psychotic drug is told that, the truth is he's not going to react to you."
The keynote speaker beforehand will be a retired top spook — former CIA Director Michael Hayden.
"No doubt when a zombie apocalypse occurs, it's going to be a federal incident, so we're making it happen," Barker said.
