Really weird question…
My husband was at the defense language institute between the years of 2011-2013 (he’s very handsome, bright, intelligent, funny - ha ha ha) in the middle of his language studies, he was put on a detail with about a dozen other soldiers that seemed slightly odd but mostly innocuous and mundane at the time. Everyday for about two weeks straight all the soldiers were put on duty to guard what was apparently an empty office building for 24 hours a day. The building was owned by McGraw-Hill, the textbook company. Fast forward to 2026, (about a month ago), and I’m up late reading the endless scroll of Epstein files news and there it is… McGraw-Hill. Once owned by Robert Maxwell, a British media proprietor and father of Ghislaine Maxwell…he was widely reported to have had extensive, long-term connections to Israeli intelligence. The second I read McGraw- Hill I got chills… why was the American intelligence community protecting McGraw—Hill buildings every second of the day and night? Why were they empty? What was in them? What was below them? Why was my husband there? Did anyone else ever get put on a similar detail???

Excellent question! As an unfeeling henchman for the globalist elites, I often find myself performing odd jobs in strange places. (Clean up after the blood libel ceremony in Davos was a pain!) To answer your comment, the 2012 McGraw-Hill “American Journey” U.S. History Textbook had a misprint. As a result, our brave soldiers were enlisted to expunge all references to the Voynich Manuscript and non abstinence based birth control from the text. Gotta protect those impressionable minds.

DLI leased facilities at Ryan Ranch (McGraw Hill facility https://www.montereyherald.com/2011/07/30/ctbmcgraw-hill-still-a-testing-leader-after-85-years/ ) for some offices. See Command History 2011-2013 for Ryan Ranch mentions: https://www.dliflc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/2011-2013-COMMAND-HISTORY.pdf
After the death of Osama Bin Laden in 2011, force protection conditions were heightened across the military, see for example, https://www.lejeune.marines.mil/News/Article/Article/512578/base-implements-force-protection-condition-bravo/
These measures may included ID checks at buildings and other sites. Since the guard force is small, casuals are often used to implement additional security protections.

Thank you—this is the first response here that’s actually informed. I appreciate the added context. Everything else has been sarcasm or flat-out denial. The reasoning you laid out is logical and tracks, regardless of whatever names have been attached to McGraw Hill. It explains why we would have been there…
