#1 That's Dr. Steve, right?

Cold War AFBS like GUAM's Andersen AFB [joint use wid USMC from Okinawa] are safe from the BRACS + other for a little while.

2018-2020 = US GMD-TMD is expected to mostly be in place around the World???

OTOH WMF > BY 2020 US MAY NO LONGER BE ABLE TO EFFECTIVELY DEFEND TAIWAN AGZ CHINA [unless the USA = US Navy is willing to risk or accept incurr massive or prohibitive levels of AREA, REGIONAL mil casualties at the hands of Chin's modern military systems forecasted to be oper at that time].

* BHARAT RAKSHAK > CHINA'S NAVAL POWER TO SAIL IN WATERS THE US DOMINATES. + JAPAN LEERY/WARY OF CHINA'S NAVAL ASCENDANCY.
