HMM: Massive Bombing Exercises Reported At Fort Knox.
UPDATE: Or not. A reader emails: “Sorry to disappoint the conspiracy theorists, but Fort Knox isn’t the place for ‘massive’ bombing exercises. Trust me, I should know. I have worked on or near Fort Knox for over a dozen years. I have also been involved in training at Fort Knox as a member of the National Guard. While there are occasions – particularly from June through August when Reserve units most often conduct such training – that one might hear artillery rounds or the like, it’s just not the place for anything resembling massive bombing or testing bunker busters. Too much civilian development near the post to be practicing air strikes. There are plenty of other more appropriate sites the military can choose from to conduct that type of training.”
