Kansas City was hit in the 80s you dope! See the missiles coming from the secret silos on the KU campus?! That's Ellsworth Hall in the background ;)
What is it with KCMO always getting nuked. LOL.....Seriesly, though, it IS a primary nuclear target. We build triggering mechanisms for nukes that we ship to Pantex form KCMO (former Richards Gabauer AFB area). Also, nearby is Whiteman AFB, with their estimated 100 B61 nukes.....or none in the WSA.
“The Day After” was a comedy compared to “Threads”.
Ellsworth Hall, Lawrence KS. There is another frame that shows ICBMs launching from Allen Field House and Delta Delta Delta Sorority ;).....90s alum here. Most of my professors were extras in the 83 film. Dumb freshman believed there were secret missile fields around Lawrence.
