Posters for Camp Okutta, ostensibly an adventure camp for kids, peppered the city. They advertised a summer of throwing grenades, shooting AK-47 assault rifles, and receiving minefield training — all for children aged eight through 12.

Hey Victoria Revay I found some things that didn't pass my sniff test. Could it be... fishy??? You might want to fix some stuff up or else it's headed to the bottom of our bird cage.
Want me to get particular? OK, I got a whiff that this story may not actually be true.
That image you added: did you really take it yourself?
This story may be a hoax, for all I know -- or maybe you think you're auditioning for a job at The Onion Or maybe you're gunning for our Catch of the Day award???

Well, the posters were a hoax - is that what you meant?
It's actually quite a confusing story and I'm not sure what it's about.

Is this a story about a hoax or a hoax story about something real? is the fishy flag a hoax? ...or are still testing?
