I was going to say, there are strategic resources out there that are not at those AFBs and NBs (basically other military bases, refueling depots for example) that are, if not essential, damn important to Statesian nuclear response and deterrent. Just don't have firsthand experience so I have to go off some conversations I've had with AF pilots, and you know how they like to wind people up.
Also i had a grandfather who helped design the minuteman out at thiokol. You know if they have a decent museum near the base in Montana? I've been meaning to take the drive up to boseman. the old thiokol plant in southern utah was a trip.
