That must be their best guess. I can tell you that one of my best buddies was a SAC guy for years. Flew BUFF’s and he NEVER knew or could find out how many specials were on the base at any time. On carriers there are only a handful of people who know what is actually in the magazines. I have been told that on boomers they actually vary the load of the missiles with dummy warheads. Only the weapons officer, the ExO and the Captain actually know what is in each tube. - and of course some guy on shore. The nut jobs tried for years to find out what was at the Concord Naval Weapons Station and the Navy would only say that the facility stored weapons based upon the needs of the Navy at any given time (came out after it was closed that there hadn’t been any nukes there for years - because of guess what security concerns).

I understand your point well and can’t possibly disagree.

My point was that there are good and valid terrorist targets at a strangely backwaterish place named Goose Creek SC and the LEO’s are on the ball.
