James Wesley:
I just read something about why Iowa wasn’t considered as a retreat when TEOTWAWKI occurs. In your response you asked for feedback. I live in soutwestern Iowa. All along the western edge of Iowa in the Loess Hills region which extends from Missouri to Minnesots. This is a region that one could defend. Actually people in the Great Depression of the 1930s dug caves into the loess soil to live in. The soil is the best in the world and it is close to Omaha and Offutt Air Force base. We’re almost 200 miles north of Kansas city, and almost 500 miles from Chicago. I would think I-80 would be a major corridor for refugees going west. It is only 600 miles to the snowy range of southeastern Wyoming, which is one of my favorite places. I know what you mean about Iowa being about 500 miles too far East, but western Iowa has something to offer. –  D.D., Major, USAF, retired.
