Yup, base lock-down was not fun. Especially for the dependants that lived off-base. :/ They had to call ahead and get permission to get on base from the security and base General. From that day on, base security everywhere become increasingly tighter.

I didn't mind the empty streets because that's how it always was during Typhon season. :P But the base houses were cement buildings so nothing ever happened to them. They always survived the storms.

Well, our base had a loud speaker system and alarm that would go off when special announcements were on the AFN. So no one didn't know. But people were really quick to run to the BX and Commisary to stock up on food and stuff. lol
