The Bangor Sub base, Keyport weapons center, Bremerton naval base, Manchester fuel depot, on the other side of the Puget Sound are Whidby island naval base, the ELF Submarine communications facility that's North of the Everett naval base, then down south to the joint base Lewis/McChord.

Not to mention all the Boeing facility's scattered around the area.

All I'll hear is a loud noise and maybe a flash of light.

Th th th that's all folks.
