I work on Fort Bragg. I know that per "canon" the 82nd, 18th airborn corps, SF and Rangers are already in the field when the nukes start to fly. Also the C-130's at Pope are probably long gone.

However...

I can imagine a "small" nuke being depostied in the T2K universe. Say 250 KT.

In the Morrow Project Universe, Fort Bragg catches a SS-N-8 from a Russian Boomer. That is a 2 MT wake up call. Per TM 1-1, the light damage radius from such an "event" is 9.6 KM. Or about 6 Miles. I live 8 miles from Fort Bragg.

So......

IF I am at work, I will transition from here to what ever happens next without even knowing what happened.

IF I am home, there is at least the possibility of survival.

Lucky me?
