        My father was a CoE Lieutenant, and stationed at Camp Desert Rock for the atomic tests. Remarkable experience and stories from him...

        This was my suggestion for the new NHL team: "The Las Vegas Fallout". I don't think they liked it much.

        Announcement made in the casino: "Attention gamblers. If you want to see what a nuclear explosion looks like, go outside now." No one moves.

        These days, that spot on Fremont street is also an excellent vantage point to watch the fallout from gentrification. 😈
