Let’s not even get into the helo noise tests the Marine Corps flat out cheated on using empty helo’s but reporting them at operational gross weights.
Miramar will be a toxic waste area as well when it’s shut down.
You seem strangely fixated on an old Air Force base that has been written off for decades since it is a Superfund toxic cleanup site. Did you buy cheap land out there to flip or what?
Yes you can carry live ordnance out of Miramar, what a silly question.
I’ve never heard someone carry on and on about something like this. The Marine Corps seems well situated with grunts, tracks, and artillery at Pendleton and aviation assets at Miramar and Pendleton.
What are you doing in a Southwest forum on a topic about the next domicile anyway, you get drunk and wander off?
Hahaha, next bender let us know ahead of time so we can join ya….. cheers!
