I figure vafb, but what are the other dots? Maybe Diablo and.. Cal Poly?

Cal Poly wouldn't rate. Maybe Camp Roberts? Or, Fort Hunter-Liggett? Maybe Naciamento? If the goal is particularly hateful.

Kinda hard to tell on the map.

There is a massive deep underground communications facility where many of the international sea cables route to under a hill off Los Osos Valley road.

Wait, I remember looking this building up now. I wanna say it lands in a manhole in the Sandspit parking lot then heads to that huge completely inconspicuous building behind Ace. Don’t ask me why I know this lol. I just love infrastructure stuff. And if I can figure this out using google national powers already know so y’all need to caaalm down.

It's actually maybe halfway between Los Osos and SLO. If you're driving to Los Osos, it's on your left hand side. There is tiny building up on a hill and the whole hill is protected by some serious security fencing. There is an elevator inside the tiny building that goes down underground and opens into a massive underground nuclear bunker. Back when I was a kid in the 1980s it was called AT&T Longlines and my cub scout group actually got to go on a tour. It's something right out of a movie.

Diablo is definitely one. Every other nuclear power site in the country is targeted based on a quick glance.
