The standard answer to what people ask me about what goes on up that way off I-95 is, "There is nothing to see there, move along." Animus sees alot of stuff up there due to the area he works. I used to work many of the same areas Animus does and what I've learned is to not ask questions and forget what I saw. It could be all kinds of secret squirrel shit or it could be completely normal things like A-10's bombing one of the target complexes thats like 10 miles from the highway. One thing to remember, there is a reason why theres all that stuff out there in that desert and its best left alone. The public has NO right to know.
I used to work up at Indian Springs (aka Creech AFB) and you wouldn't believe all the nuts that seem to gravitate toward that place. I had one guy look at me with a complete straight face and request political asylum because Condoleeza Rice was trying to kill him. Now the smartest thing to have done was try to calm the guy down and get him some help. Well, I was already in a shitty mood from dealing with stupid Airmen earlier that night and I wasn't in the mood to deal with another dumbass. I said to the guy, "Sir, if the Secretary of State wants you dead, why do you want refuge here when they can get you here really easy?" His eyes bugged out and he sped off. I got his tag number and called Metro to deal with him.
When I used to work at Creech all I had to do some nights is walk out in back of the LE Desk and watch AC-130's and HH-60's light up the night with flares and tracers, then watch A-10's come and make a mess of things too. Most people who don't know about what goes on around there think theres a big conspiracy or little green men from Mars are out flying but in most cases its a bunch of A-10 pilots shooting the desert up.
