"But they'll see everything! They'll see the big board!"
Buck Turgidson would surely have been horrified to learn that the NORAD command center, the spiffy "war room" made famous in movies and popular culture, is going away.
Not literally going away- why, not even commie hydrogen munitions could've removed the mountain range. But the facility will no longer be fully staffed, in a cost-cutting measure. It's another Cold War apparatus that's outlived it's usefulness. Mmmmostly....seems they're going to leave stuff plugged in and dust free, just in case.
Henceforward, command will be consolidated and exercised from a nearby USAF facility.
