[quote:Anonymous Coward 78221742:MV80NTYwNTUwXzgzMTAyOTcyXzYxMUU4ODE2] [quote:Bud Fox:MV80NTYwNTUwXzgzMDk5ODkwXzExQzk4NTY=] This one is kind of spooky to me considering I just got done re-reading Alas Babylon. Right before the nuclear war, Strategic Air Command dispersed many of their aircraft to small regional airports away from bases and cities...like College Station. Probably not why this is happening, but still spooky. Also, it seems strange to me that they did it at this airport, without telling anyone. Couldn't the same drill be accomplished at any number of abandoned fields without disturbing civilian air traffic? I honestly have no idea, maybe it is just a drill, but this one seems odd.

Original Message
Apparently, very few people, if anyone, at Easterwood Airport in College Station, Texas knew exactly what was going on with the sudden deployment of the Army's preeminent air defense system, either.
"Nobody knows anything, they just showed up" one commercial pilot that flies in and out of Easterwood daily told The War Zone.
