I think they're soldiers. And they may be guarding top secret alien UFO's.

It would probably help to know a little about the location.
Nothing precise, just a city.
Does sound weird, though. Have you heard anything on your local news that might be related?

Do they have any weapons visible??
Any signs of what they are doing there? Do they look like they are surveilling anything, or are they just there?

Have you considered calling the local authorities?
That is if you trust them.

Oh come on! Their just soldiers, probably back from their tour and they've got nowhere to go other than the streets. It happens all the time.
I highly doubt there's anything suspicious about them.
I wish someone had thought the guys with military style backpacks on the London tubes looked suspiscious enough to call the police.
Not always a bad thing to be curious.
CX.

Yes I did call, although, no I do not trust them. The officers looked at his identification, or something he pulled from his pocket and they left. They did not stop here to explain, but the guy walked away. They didn't look in his backpack or anything

......Because they aren't doing anything wrong. A cop wont just walk up to a former soldier down on his luck and demand to know what hes doing there and search through all of his stuff. Lots of soldiers get wounded or are put out of the service through domeother means when the military is all they know. These are men who had all their food, housing, freinds, most of their money, adn their reason for getting up in the moring taken away from them. Its not easy for a lot of them to integrate into civilian life. Give them a break.
