Remote command center, a few miles outside Washington, D.C. a US Army command center is set up to test the emergency response of Army units to a crisis in the Capital.

Military police, microwave truck, and other vehicles in the forest ready for any eventuality.

Nicely done, but have you seen the DC area? Paved over. Instead of "a few miles" if you want them in a forest they'd better head for the Shenandoah Valley. Mind you, if there were a real crisis, that's about as close to DC as I'd care to be.

Well, these vehicles are sort of WWII – 1950s…

And yes I have been to DC three times. It was a strange place, very beautiful, and often run down.

I would like to go back someday, maybe when things calm down a bit.

Thanks for reading robert.

Good point. The crowded suburb I lived and worked in at the end would have been horse country in the Eisenhower Administration. But if you're waiting for DC to calm down, I'd say read a good book first. Game of Thrones might be about right, if you include waiting for the unwritten volumes.

The place lives on crises, and will create one if no one else provides.

Maybe I'd was there too long. For me, the strange long ago overwhelmed the beautiful.
