Rifts: Steel and Chaos

• First, we believe at this point that all command and control functions in both Washington and headquartered out of NORAD are permanently lost along with most of not all command personnel attached. The NEMA-HQ complex was never made operational, but we do have some indications that the commissioning team is trying to bring it online. If they do, the resources of that complex and its utility literally cannot be overstated.
• We have managed to maintain or establish certain contacts, particularly we are in intermittent contact with NEMA detachments in Chicago and Pittsburgh as well as a determined amateur broadcasting daily from Bok's tower in Florida.
• The chapel remains sealed and we're stumped as to how or what to do about it. As anyone can observe through the window, Chaplain Hansen and a few of our guests are inside and seem to be immobile. Both churches in Bluemont seem to be in the same state, everything stopped at about 7:30 in the morning on the 29th of December. For those seeking spiritual guidance or comfort, PFC Wells will be holding services just in front of the chapel at the normal times and will be in the Chaplain's office at other times as her schedule permits.
