It wasn't what happened on the outside, this incident is a real trigger point for a lot of vets.

Hope yer safe gal! Prolly just ruining yer sleep time.

Actually, I slept through some of it. It started shortly before I went to bed. When the first building-shaker hit, I was at my computer and I dove under my desk. (I've gotten real good at that.) It sounded like it was going to break my window. Then, I crept out and kept doing what I was doing. I had no idea what was going on out there.

But the blasts were still going on when I went to bed. Once I'm asleep, I don't hear a thing.

All is well here now and I've just heard from one friend at FOB Falcon. He says they're OK there, but he doesn't know all the details yet.

I found out that a couple of the camps on FOB Falcon are destroyed. No casualties reported.

Sounds like these were some huge explosions. Maybe bigger than NK's "nuclear" test? Is there any seismic data on this?
