Landing Force
Is there a good place near Tinker Air Force Base to photograph planes taking off and landing?
Not wanting to violate any security; just like taking photos of airplanes.
I would say the reception park right outside of the gate. It is the one with the old airplanes and the children's playground.
I used to take my son to the park there, we took a few pictures as well. However that was pre 911. You are likely to subject yourself to a beating from the Midwest City Police, the Sheriffs Department and the SP's. Simply taking pictures of War Planes taking off and landing is a thing for days gone by.

STS-117 Atlantis landing at edwards air force base
if an enemy amphibious fleet carrying two divisions of a landing force was say like heading to.....?
florida what actions would be taken against it? if the fleet was far enough away from land would nuking it be an option? or would it be mainly conventional war with fighter jets and bombers?
Conventional action most likely. Probably would include a mix of air, surface, and subsurface units acting in a coordinated fashion.

RT 7News viewer Aurelio Cuervo captured this video of Air Force One landing at MIA.
Kathy –
My father was in Italy in 1943 (after Salerno, before Anzio), and his ship was badly damaged in the last significant German air attack on an Allied port in the theater. He served in the North Atlantic and Pacific as well, and could say that he had been shot at by the Germans AND the Japanese. He got shot at in Korea as well, after having been retreaded for that one…
Actually, the shortcomings of SHINGLE (the Anzio landings) lay much farther up the chain of command than JP Lucas (who commanded the VI Corps in the initial landings); as other far more astute historians than I observed a long time ago, SHINGLE was too far north of the German MLR to flank it and the landing force was too small to open a second front, so Lucas and his troops could not do much more than what they did, which was actually the prudent thing – and after having been in action during HUSKY and having seen what happened to the VI Corps at Salerno (AVALANCHE, where it also got the short end of the stick), Lucas was right to be cautious.
The landing force amounted to two reinforced divisions, the British 1st and the US 3rd; by Jan. 29, the Allies had roughly 69,000 troops ashore; the Germans had 71,000 troops in the defense on the same date. 1-to-1 odds is pretty much a guaranteed win for the defenders on any battlefield…3-1 is the standard ratio for a sucessful assault, and Lucas didn't have that by a long shot…
A very good recent history is Carlo D'Este's “Fatal Decision: Anzio and the Battle for Rome” … the appropriate volumes in the Green Books “Salerno to Cassino” (Blumenson) and “Cassino to the Alps” (Fisher) are both well done as well.
Matt – Actually, man-for-man, the US Merchant Marine had a higher casualty rate during WW II than any other branch of the armed forces but the Marine Corps; your grandfather would have been statistically safer in the Army or Navy…

Look at who his mentor was and read a few of obama's books. Look who he has picked as his czars and what they believe.
Bill S is 100% correct.
