Schriever (SHREE'-ver) Air Force Base spokeswoman Jennifer Thibault (THEE'-balt) says the building was evacuated after the standoff began Monday. She says no shots were fired and no one was injured.

Bases are usually big places. The areas with control over satellites are pretty tightly secured.

Once upon a time, when a GI was facing Civil Court action, his tickets were suspended and he was reassigned until the matter was resolved.
But that was in the days when SAC had a dozed different policies that would have prohibitied nukes from getting loaded on a transport by mistake......

I am pretty certain that there is more than one back up facility and they probably get lots of training and testing. In a rational world I'd be certain of that.
