Wyoming has Warren AFB which has 150 nuclear missile silos.

Alaska has Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Fort Wainwright and Eileson AFB near Fairbanks.

Hawaii has Joint Base Hickam-Pearl Harbor plus a couple Army and Marine bases.

Those states would be among the first to be hit with nukes.
