The whole thing about the President reminds me a bit of the film "By Dawn's Early Light" where if I recall correctly the President (played by Martin Landau) is missing for a period of time and there is some debate about his bona fides when he is eventually found.
Thanks for posting that exceprt from HW Webstral. It's been some years since I last saw a copy. Interesting that it suggests (to me at least) that the Alternate National Military Command Centre (and presumably the Joint Chiefs themselves?) was located in Fort Ritchie, Maryland, until well into 1999, which raises the question of how the personnel from Fort Ritchie got to Colorado Springs - by air? Overland convoy?
