Giving aid and comfort to the enemy?
Funny how we had none of these types of stories when obama was busy surrendering, ceding the world to our adversaries, and leading from behind.
A tough job that somebody has to do. Glad that people are watching out for Americans and America. Thank you.
Well thanks for announcing its location. If and when that unspeakable day comes, look for a preemptive strike that will obliterate the mountain.
Another hit piece upon America from the Communist News Network.
Star-gate Command Earth base
White Privileged Flyover Country full of crazy gun owners.
Hogg needs to show up in Omaha to give a revolutionary speech.
In 2011 I saw a U.S. Navy Boeing 707 at North Island Naval Air Station 100th anniversary air show. That plane was the command center to direct the ballistic missile submarines after the U.S. has been attacked. The crew members were there answering questions. That 707 reminded me of the doomsday machine in Dr. Strangelove.
Highly doubtful
Strategic control since the cold war, and in particular since precision tactical nuclear strike capabilities, would require somewhat hierarchical but redundant, fail-safe, partially mobile, and covert organization.
That makes you guys “ground zero” on Vlad’s hit parade list. Glad I live 350 miles to the southwest, UPWIND of your location!
“Well, boys, this is it - nuclar combat, toe-ta-toe wit the Roosskies!” WAHOO!
I grew up an hour north of Omaha.
Remember B52 flying over head. One great memory as a kid was a C5 flying so low in our “valley” that I looked up and saw the tail number right outside my bedroom window.
Had friends whose parents worked at Offut in the SAC days. One of their Dad’s told me that if war was declared “Go outside and watch the show, you are to close to survive”.
Honestly, good times. I loved the old SAC museum that was on the old base grounds. The new one in Ashland is nice, but there is something about sitting in an old hanger listening to old missile men tell stories.

I didn’t get the impression that the film was in the new mission command center. Still about 24 months to go I imagine.
Really good, thanks. I always feel better about our country when I get to see people like this in action, doing a tough job with utmost professionalism and dedication. Even when it has to come through the lens of CNN ;-)
On a very small scale related experience, I’d organized a tour group of the Minuteman training facility at F.E. Warren AFB in Cheyenne back in the 70s and while we were in the LCC simulator they received a test EAN and when the lights started flashing and klaxons blaring it was very easy to forget “this is just a test”. These drills happened at random times even for the training facility because that’s how they work in the actual job, and it was impressive to watch. Fortunately since THEY knew it was a drill we were allowed to stay and observe instead of getting the boot.
Oh, thats the command lead by that treasonous General who was outside the USA and said he would resist an illegal order from Trump to launch.
Why is that John Hyten still the General after holding up the Commander in Chief in a demeaning light?
It may be time to re-read the excellent book from decades ago by Pat Frank ‘Alas, Babylon!’ Offatt has a major part.
This is where Dubya went after leaving Florida and making a refueling stop at Barksdale AFB, LA on Sept 11, 2001
Your asking me to click in CNN? Sorry no can do.
Thanks for posting Navy Vet! Very interesting. I live 12 miles straight west of Offutt. I will be teeing off at Tregaron tomorrow at 12:30 so I will be right across the road from you guys.
I saw one of the E-4s out flying around town the other day. Did they get the ones that got damaged in the tornado last June back online? That was an expensive mess for you guys out there.
Has Vice Admiral Richards, been seen lately? Is he still deputy commander of STRATCOM?
Any truth to the statement that 3 of the doomsday planes were damaged in a tornado, and Richards failed to disperse those?
I haven’t heard anything since Trump pardoned that sailor for the picture incident.
