| jbottero | 2007-09-22 13:58:24 | Another Romanian UFO | Apparently, the aliens are teaching farming technique to the Romanians. This may have serious consequences to the balance of world power. |

This map has *NO* detail in Google Maps. |
| jbottero | 2007-05-30 10:21:29 | SOS!!! A sunken ship | What's interesting about that is that it's not in the Google Map pic, so it's reasonably recent (or they removed it). |
| jbottero | 2007-05-28 14:54:00 | Western State Hospital Ruins | Ruins also used for search and rescue training. |
| jbottero | 2007-05-28 14:52:44 | Troop Formation at Command Post | Given all the cars and the fire truck display, I think either a high ranking officer retirement / finny flight, change of command, or VIP arrival. |
| jbottero | 2007-05-28 14:10:58 | Alert Facility at Little Rock AFB | Probably the Base Command Post, sort of the nerve center for base operations. All USAF bases have one, usually on the flightline. |
