I have been in a duty guard at an ammo dump in the mid of the 80', when a fire burst near one of the casemate and the firefighters didn't want go in the ammo dump to extingush the fire, we done it we were 4 do do the job, it was hard but we win :D .

no big loss not like it was in the middle of moscow the area is pretty remote infact its more like a waste land hence why its there good job those missiles didnt land in it.

the kamchatka peninsular is where russian practice SLBM missiles are targeted and land :up:
