It’s getting real.
Well, if it’s going to be nuclear, there won’t be much fighting after the first hour or so.
The Norks have no idea what they’re up against.
Prayers up for them. South Dakota native and my dad was Air Force, not Ellsworth, but MacDill during the Korean conflict, radar guy.
Well, if it’s going to be nuclear, there won’t be much fighting after the first hour or so.According To Lehrer it'll be an hour and a half
So Long, Mom (A Song for World War III) - with intro -
I remember him singing this one on TW3 (For those who remember that show)
Uh oh. Somebody better tell Hank Johnson.
And President Merkin.
Prayers.
We will not use nukes in that neighborhood. There is something called "radioactive fallout." It doesn't discriminate between friend and foe.
They have to know, I just don’t get it.
Go ahead KJI. Make my day. See what happens
Drop one or two deep penetration bombs on the NorK command and control centers. Kill the generals, the politicians.
It’s still the ‘beginning of the beginning’ but you’re right - it’s starting to feel real.
Yup... precisely. B2s. Eliminate electricity, radars, communications, air. force, artillery batteries.
A couple of these guys are deployed long enough to bring wives and kids. They were at the beach today. Quite a nice change from South Dakota!
“Nice change” .... IF NK is full of it about bombing the place.
I seriously doubt the N Koreans could hit Guam with a missile. The island is 11 miles by 40 miles. That’s a tough target for primitive missile from 1000+ miles away.
Additionally the is at least 1 battery of THAAD missiles deployed here, maybe two.
What might work is a bomb on a trawler.
And supposedly there’s a way via satellites to track nuclear material.
The artillery aimed at Seoul is likely a bigger threat for mass casualties.
I don’t think taking out the top leadership is enough. We’d have to completely wipe our their capacity to make war in short order to prevent yet another crazy dictator from taking control of the country.
Btw, this is a dress rehearsal for what we are going to be facing with Iran any day now. Thanks, Obama!
I remember air raid shelters and doing duck and cover in school during the Cuban missile crisis. That was some scary $hit.
