Let’s see...where I live:
Naval Station Everett- 60 miles away
Naval Station Puget Sound (Bremerton)- 35 miles away
Naval Station Kitsap- 45 miles away
Subase Bangor (West Coast home of Ohio-class boomers)- 50 miles away
Joint Base Lewis-McChord- 2 blocks away (literally)
Yep...I’m screwed.
It might be better to live near Ground Zero and get incinerated in a flash versus a slow painful death from radiation poisoning.
Us too. Roughly a third of the way between NYC and Philadelphia; Naval Ammunition Depot Earle (now Naval Weapons Station Earle, I think) about 15 miles NNE, Joint Base Dix-Mcguire-Lakehurst about 15 miles SW. Not close enough to go quickly, though.
