Explosions on Medina?
Does anybody know what just happened near Medina Base? 6 or 7 big explosions that shook my whole house. I know they fire that cannon up at Ft. Sam for retreat but it's not that loud.

A friend that works at KSAT said it was bomb detonation training with explosives more forceful than normal.

thats nothing, one time I was delivering food to their training center which is waaaaay in there. So as I was passing over their "intel" bulding, they have the test field, bunkers and underground site (you can sometimes see it comming from hwy 90) well that particular day. they detonated a LRARM and the shock wave not only caused me to loose control of my bladder, but it almost tipped my trailer over  . All they said was... Sorry lol! |

I asked a friend of mine that works at NSA-T over there and she said nobody heard anything. Strange

I DO work over there and when I read the original post I had to think really hard about what I was doing during that time. I was at work, in my office, and heard/felt nothing. |
