COLORADO SPRINGS AIR FORCE INSTALLATION ON HEIGHTENED ALERT
Four Installations Across The Country Are Affected By Order From U.S. Space Command
by Baaron Pittenger

6/29/2006

An Air Force installation in Colorado Springs and one near Denver are operating with heightened security.

The Cheyenne Mountain Air Station, which houses NORAD, is now at "Bravo-Plus".

There are five levels of alert: normal, Alpha (low), Bravo (medium), Charlie (high) and Delta (critical). “Bravo-Plus” is slightly higher than a medium threat level.

The Cheyenne Mountain Air Station And Buckley Air Force Base are among four installations in the country at the higher alert level ordered last week by then- Acting-Commander of Air Force Space Command, General Fred Klotz.

Space Command would not comment on the reason for the security increase.

The order also affects Vandenberg Air Force Base in California and Patrick air force base in Florida.

Our local, Keesler AFB has been staying pretty steady at Charlie

Well with the attitude of the S Koreans, maybe we should just leave! Ya right, that won't happen. After the S Koreans realized what they HAD, we would have to go back and liberate them again.

We would have to call them the new France now wouldn't we.

Yes that is what I picked out of a news story, glock.

Looks like North Korea tempted fate again. It's so obvious they want to trick the USA into a strike.

They launched five to six ICBM missiles as part of their so-called "test" they warned us about. They fired the first missile minutes after the launch of the Space Shuttle. They then fired several missiles minutes later. All crashed into the Japan Sea with nothing hit or destroyed. The missiles were destroyed approximately two minutes after launch, while still less than half way into their boost phase.

Interesting. We almost had a new war started today.
