USAF generaly do stick to national holidays (Martin Luther King Day today) other than some "transport" type movements. Probably a long weekend for the deployment.

'Rumour' from various spotters is until the end of the month. At least its probably safe to say that they will be here at least all of next week. There are also indications of further regular deployments of B52's and other aircraft that can be expected throughout 2018, but what and when is anybody's guess at this time?

I got the impression (can’t remember where from) it could be almost monthly bomber deployments

God bless Trump

Gossip at the fence on Tuesday was of seven/another seven deployments this year, with Baltops as last year, with all three bomber types lined up to attend. Though I'm sure the B-2s were here for non-Baltops reasons last year.
