I lived in El Toro as a kid and it was loud as heck some days. Lots of lead sleds in my day.
Yes was loud. Many of my young friends were marine brats. I went to Old Mission School and by the time they got to speed the BOOMS would shake the walls of my little school. Grandpa and my dad were at Yuma Test site and again the BOOMS were pretty much ubiquitous sometimes in evening. I don’t think I’ve heard a sonic boom in decades now.
