We don't see any evidence of a bolt hole or cryo tubes either, the existence of such is implied.
We don't see any evidence of a command structure for the A team or a means to communicate with one. That is implied too.
We have no evidence that is the only Snake Eater team located in that region. This is the one that has been revived. The existence of more is implied.
The U.S. and Canada has more resources to draw on than the Morrow Project. When the cryosleep program was finalized with Teams going to sleep could have been selected and emplaced for as long or more than the Morrow Project.
The Snake Eater program isn't going to have the Psych evals that washes out MP Personnel. Thus unfit for the Snake Eaters program never lasted in SF to begin with, which is about peer review and team work. Thus more personnel on the ground.
The SOF community is going to have those that have no desire to go back to the civilian world, and the cryosleep programs would be one more awesome deployment were they would be extremely important and at last valued by civilians. Larger, though older, talent pool.
As for any facilities that are or were military, those facilities are going to be nuked. Likely a combination of air-burst to strip away surface structures like buildings and antennae; followed by a ground burst to use ground shock to break foundations, collapse tunnels, and permanently twist doors frames and hatches making them useless.
The Soviet arsenal in 1989 is < 10,000 official warheads. According to one story the War starts 19 November 1989 but, last three months as missiles are continually exchanged, often striking the same target multiple times.
