TOP 3 MOST SECRET U.S. MILITARY BASES
Am I the only one that is obsessed with the "top secret" happenings of our government??? I find it totally fascinating that not only top secret missions take place, but also right under our nose!
I came across this article today completely by mistake when I Google searched "do military bases have classifieds" and when it came up the first in searches of course I followed the link.
Now, I have to say that the credibility of the website is a little shotty, but fun none-the-less so humor me please. Check out the full article here!
THE TOP 3 MOST SECRET U.S. MILITARY BASES
CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN COMPLEX
More than a mile inside a Colorado mountain, a complex of steel buildings sit in caves protecting them from nuclear attack. The bunker is home to a variety of top secret military analysts and was originally built to help military commanders survive a direct Soviet nuclear attack. The Cheyenne Mountain Complex in central Colorado still plays a key role in American air and space supremacy because it's virtually impervious to attacks on the electronics housed there. The mountain's shielding means the military can remain in contact with satellites above even if workers are completely sealed inside. In other words, this is a facility of last resort, designed to keep running no matter what is happening outside.
DUGWAY PROVING GROUNDS
The Dugway Proving Grounds in Tooele, Utah is a testing facility for military hardware. It is the size of Rhode Island and there’s every indication that anything you can imagine going on in Area 51 does go on. Initiated within two months of Pearl Harbor, there are 60 years worth of reports suggesting this is the home of next-generation weapons systems, secret aircraft, particle beams, chemical and biological weapons, and much more.
RAVEN ROCK - SITE R - WWIII HIDEAWAY
The Raven Rock Alternate Command Center, or “Site R,” is the location from which U.S. forces would be commanded in the event of World War III or a nuclear war. Like Cheyenne, it is designed to be self-sufficient for 30 days after a nuclear attack.
Pretty cool stuff huh??!? We can speculate all day for the rest of our lives, but we never will truly know what goes on at these "military bases". What I do like to think is that they are there for the greater good of America...
