July 29, 2015 - It should come as no surprise that with an annual military budget of over $610
billion, the United States invests in some gargantuan black ops and top secret facilities. These
include warfare testing, nuclear bunkers, chemical experimentation, Continuance of
Government (COG) command centers, and a wide variety of both known and unknown
contingency preparation. Some of the facilities, like the infamous Area 51, are well-branded
into our collective imagination; other are less known and considerably more vexing. It stirs
and scares the mind to think about an entire underground network of tunnels connecting giant
government facilities. Yet they are out there, down there, controlling this nations future
military responses and engaging in technological and weapons testing that most of us cannot
even begin to fathom.
1. The Cheyenne Mountain Complex, Home of NORAD
Perhaps the most salient feature of this site is the 48,000-square-foot Reginald Kendall
Combined Chemical Test Facility, where chemical warfare detection devices and protective
clothing are tested on what or whom, we dont know.
3. Raven Rock, Site R World War III Hideaway
The Raven Rock Alternate Command Center, or Site R, is the location from which U.S.
forces would be commanded in the event of World War III or a nuclear war. Like Cheyenne,
it is designed to be self-sufficient for 30 days after a nuclear attack.
There are some reports that a 6 mile tunnel connects it to Camp David. In his book Top Secret
Tourism, author Harry Helms notes that cell phones and GPS devices do not work near Site
R, which suggests there is a blocking mechanism in use to prevent people from coordinating
Mount Weather is another above top secret military base cocooned within a hollowed out
mountain, this time in Berryville, Virginia. There was a time when this facility was the
biggest secret since the Manhattan Project. Like many other top secret military bases, Mount
Weather is tasked with protecting military elite in the event of a major disaster. This one is
perhaps the ultimate bomb shelter. During the September 11, 2001 attacks, many high level
officials, including Vice President Cheney, took refuge here.
In addition to its numerous living quarters and recreational facilities, Mount Weather also has
a crematorium and a radio and television station.
It has long been rumored that this military base hosts officials and commanders from an
alternate chain of commanda parallel government so to speakthat would take over in the
unlikely event that the entire presidential line of command is killed or turned into zombies.
6. Wright Patterson Air Force Base Whats Inside Hangar 18?
Home to Project Blue Book and the infamous Hangar 18, the Wright Patterson Airforce Base
in Dayton, Ohio is yet another hub for conspiracy theories. What we know for sure goes on
there is aviation technology research, and with 22,000 people employed and 6,000 personnel
and their families living on-base, it seems like it would be difficult for flying saucers to be
shuttled in and out without notice.
However, there is a large contingency that believes that after the Roswell crash, much of the
wreckage of the UFOs and the alien bodies were taken to WPAFB and stored in a facility that
came to be known as Hangar 18. The bodies of the aliens are said to be preserved in the
Blue Room.
A more realistic explanation is that the CIA and Air Force used the flying saucer phenomenon
and Project Blue Book as a disinformation campaign to cover up sightings of the U2 and SR71 spy planes (and possibly stealth craft) that were being developed by the government in
secret.
7. Area 51, aka Groom Lake
Unless youve been living in a cave without wi-fi for the last half century, youve already
heard of Area 51. Area 51 is simultaneously one of the most cliched and most enigmatic
subjects in American popular culture and has been since the Roswell incidents in the late
forties. It begs the question: How could so little be known about something that is talked
about so much? And the even more haunting question: If our government was secretly
creating an atomic bomb in an underground city (the Manhattan Project) over 50 years ago,
what epic deviousness could they be up to today?
Whether its in Area 51 itself or a different military installation, such as the nebulous Dulce
base, its almost a certainty that the U.S. government is engaged in some high-level covert
technological experiments. Therefore, when I say Area 51, I mean wherever the hell theyre
doing whatever the hell theyre doing.
Ostensibly, this includes any of the following: alien experimentation, reverse engineering of
alien spaceships recovered from Roswell, alien interbreeding, quantum teleportation,
advanced artificial intelligence, high tech propulsion systems, and time travel. The most
recent theory surmises that whatever was taken to Area 51 from Roswell actually concerned a
failed Soviet experiment.
8. Plant 42 Area 51s Aircraft Supplier
In Top Secret Tourism, Harry Helms states theres a fair chance that every top secret U.S.
aircraft of the last four decades has been built 60 miles from downtown Los Angeles, at the
mother of all secret aircraft military bases: Plant 42 in Palmdale. Spread out over 5,800 acres,
Plant 42 is highly secured, meaning inquisitive civilians with cameras have absolutely no
chance of even getting close to what goes on inside. In fact, if you even park on a street
adjacent to the outermost edge you are likely to be harassed by law enforcement. It has been
said that anything that is flown at Area 51 is built at Plant 42.
9. HAARP Playing God with the Ionsphere
A surviving remnant of Reagans Star Wars initiative, the High Frequency Active Auroral
Research Program (HAARP) in Gakona, Alaska is one of the more controversial and
mysterious military projects in recent history. The official objectives of this Air Force/Navy
lovechild is to shoot high frequency beams through the ionosphere for scientific research
purposes (meaning there are no military applications).
However, a litany of conspiracy theories, as well as some actual solid evidence, suggest more
is going on there than mere adult science fair projects. Fringe theories range from the facility
being used to test electromagnetic mind control signals to it being the home base of
geoengineering and weather modifying technology. Others claim they are working on
holographic technology that can be used to beam images into the sky. A rash of mysterious
humming and booming sounds in the region have also been attributed to HAARP activity.
All that can be said for certain about HAARP is that there is some very strange research
going on there that is directly applicable to defense systems, which falls under the category of
militarywhich HAARP denies its a part of. Last year, reports began to surface that
HAARP was being shut down. Others claimed HAARP as we know it has always been a
front for the real facility, which is located in Poker Flats, North of Fairbanks, Alaska.
10. The Dulce Base the real Area 51?
This is the only base listed here that may not exist. Im giving in to my conspiracy side and
including one of the more controversial government hideaways among fringe circles.
According to these conspiracists, Area 51 is just a smokescreen for where the real above top
secret experiments have been taking place: Dulce. The base is allegedly a secret alien
underground facility under Archuleta Mesa on the Colorado-New Mexico border.
However, the government does not formally acknowledge the existence of the base and no
one has been able to produce substantial proof of the aliens that exist there, though some have
tried.;
Excluded but on the shortlist:
China Lake
Edwards Base
Lawrence Livermore
Onizuka Air Force Base
Buckley Air Force Base
Peterson Air force, CO
Fort Gordon
