Yeah, CT has a big 'ol bullseye on it for the nukes.

If it comes to that, I would rather get the direct hit than what comes after

Such a weird thing to consider, but the initial blasts may be preferable to anything close to the experiences (with relatively "tiny" bombs mind you) people have had in the past.

Definitely would rather be dusted than microwaved slowly. But tactical nukes are even smaller than the tiny bombs, and would probably a better choice for military targets like EB. But who knows what will be used if the time comes....

Between them, Sikorsky and Pratt, we always were. We had several Nike missile sites as well.

I used to live right across the Thames from the Navy base in Quaker Hill, and then in downtown NL directly across from EB. I always appreciated that in any nuclear war I would've been one of the "instantly vaporized without even realizing it" people. Unfortunately, I've moved over to Middlesex so I'm definitely more in the "slow painful death" zone now.

I'd venture to say that Sikorski, Pratt, Hartford, Milestone, Bradley, Groton, and Yale all have bullseyes 🎯 on them. Don't worry, we'll all be vaporized if it comes to that.
