>>In addition, there are 48 F-16s stationed at nearby Hill Air Force Base. 24 will be in use at any one time. After Sept 11, there were only 12 F-16s in the sky for the entire country. There are also several BlackHawk Helicopters and who knows what else they have patrolling the skies. The military has also setup a radar station on top of one of the mountains.

Michel;

I hope things are better today but somehow I doubt it, from a security standpoint. When I was in Air Force Security Service, we had a great deal of Top Secret information that even we were not aware of. This was key information like how many Minute Man Missles were in what status, etc.

Several times we watched a local tv news spot or read something in the local newspaper that broke security. Our commander would get rather upset. The media said, "it was doing it's job". I can assure you that even the commander did not know information that was released by the media.

One major reason I did not re-enlist - there is no such thing as security. Prayer works much better! :)
