Arrr, the scallywags at the Pentagon be sayin' on Tuesday, "Nay, them flying contraptions o'er New Jersey and New York ain't our warships! 'Tis but landlubbers with a fancy for toys!" Aye, ye hobbyists be gettin' a bit too cheeky with yer sky-frolickin' gadgets!

Ahoy, mateys! Gather 'round fer a tale of curious contraptions soaring through the skies o’ New Jersey and New York! The Department o' Defense, much like a stubborn captain, be claimin' these aerial wonders be naught from their fleet. Nay, they declare, 'tis merely hobbyists flyin' their playful drones for sport, not military marauders!

Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, the Pentagon's voice, faced a barrage o' queries like cannon fire, resolutely affirming these drones ain't part o' no secret military scheme nor do they belong to the DoD. With over a million registered drones in the U.S., he says ye might spot 'round 8,500 buzzin' about on any given day—mostly for genteel pastime, mind ye!

Yet, the good captain Ryder admits the possibility o' some mischief afoot, though he insists this drone dilemma ain't new near military bases. Reports have been flyin' in about drones hoverin' over places like Trump’s golf club and military research havens. The DoD be sharpening its spyglass, ensuring they can spot any suspicious vessels in their skies.

Finally, in a jest fit for a jolly bunch, Ryder quipped about a certain black monolith not bein' part o' this aerial ruckus, echoing the wise words o' a Jedi with a wink. So fear not, me hearties, for these be just playful drones, not invadin' fleets! Savvy?
