We have CRAM here at Fort Sill. It goes off at all times of the day and night. It's truly an awesome system.

Ft. Sill! I spent a few months in Ft. Sill back in '69! In 2002, I rode my Harley chopper cross-country to see the old Fort and to pay a visit to what we knew in '69 as "sin city", Lawton. A lot changed when I went back. By chance I met an ex street cop from '69 and he told me how the city had completely changed. The infamous Warren Hotel was gone along with the strip joints and pool hall. All the seediness is gone in the name of "urban renewal". In '02 the city looked like a giant strip mall! When I saw Ft. Sill, I didn't recognize it. All the 2 story wood barracks were gone replaced by high- rise dormitories. Oh well, the character of the place was destroyed, but nothing can destroy the memories!

Good one Talyn, but on a serious note, two years ago I did have bats, they got in someplace around the roof and got into my basement, three nights in a row I had to go and chase them bas***ds out, drove my cat nuts. Good video.

Best to put fine screens on your attic vents. And...

If you have a wood stove always keep the door closed when you're not using it in the warm seasons.

Yeah, I was stationed here in 2003 and decided to stay. I heard it called the armpit of Oklahoma, but the city is trying to bring in new business to remove that old nickname.
 
Last house where I resided, bats thought I was intruding into their territory. I used the best bat catcher I discovered as a kid, a big hoop style fishing net. Every time one flew past me in the house, I'd quickly get the net in front of them, then off to Neverland they went! Had the same problem with squirrels that took over the attic. I got a small trap and baited it outside the house with the one thing no squirrel can resist; peanut butter. I caught a couple dozen of those little squatters (all of them) and relocated each one to an area 5 miles away and across a river so no chance were they coming back, unless of course, they can read a road map. Once all these vermin were gone, I sealed up their entry points.

That was exactly what I used to catch the critters.

We used to have squirrels and tons of rabbits until a family of Great Horned Owls moved in. They cleaned them all out, except for the occasional cotton tail.
 
Back in Connecticut I was renting a house while mine was being built, it had at one time been a barn and as soon as the winter started the mice moved in. I set 8 traps through out the kitchen and one morning I was up having coffee when 5 of them went off in 10 seconds. I moved out the next week and rented a condo until my house was done in the spring.
 
Heck of a weapons system, that was not installed on any ships I served aboard :( . iirc, that CIWS (Close In Weapon System), or C-Whiz for short, is slinging dense 20mm depleted uranium projectiles at 3,000rnds per min. Last ditch effort for incoming missiles/threats.

Okay on a serious note. Could you imagine the size of the processing computer that is required to operate this thing?

Skynet has that covered.......
 
Actually, not all that much. Most of the system is contained within the fire-unit, and the rest of the trailer is the generator, and ammo resupply.

But I imagine it takes Anni a long time handloading all that 20mm. ;)
