More likely to be Air National Guard. AFAIK, they still keep birds on alert. USAF would take longer to get birds ready. DC Air Guard IIRC F-16s. Top of Pentagon caves in, they report on ABC as I type. Burning like a mother. Completely caved in around center court, where A/C hit. This event will change our country forever, and quite likely not for the good. Washington DC military on Threatcon Delta, highest level. Rest of US Military on Threatcon Charlie.

You know, this really bugs me. The "rest of the military" on Threatcon Charlie... but they are all scattered all over the globe, when the biggest threat is right here at home. We really *NEED* to pull out of some of those "peacekeeping" missions and let them come home and live in the country they are sworn to protect.
