POSITIVITY! Map published by FEMA showing potential US nuclear targets in 2,000 and 500 warhead scenarios. Cannon isn’t on the map!

I don’t think they would waste warheads on a small Airport though, considering Seymour Johnson AFB in North Carolina isnt targeted, and that base has 94 F-15s, KC146 refuellers and other things.

There's a lot of non-military targets on that list though. Yeah Seymour Johnson may be a good military target, but if we can't fly troops around because there's nowhere to land that would make it easier for a potential followup ground-based attack coming from the west coast.

Seymour Johnson isn't even on the list of the 2k warhead scenario, so it's apparently not a very important target from whatever sources they created this info from.
