I think
Fort Irwin is under strength. I bet, once the call to evacuate people from the cities was broadcast, Fort Irwin sent choppers to far away
places like LA and sent troop convoys to closer cities like Barstow - all lost. Its a possible reason why the barracks area seems to be protected by 10ft high Texas barriers and Baghdad like checkpoints. As to the question if
the Mallers could take Fort Irwin - no. At full strength, the Mallers only have small arms and that tanker trick and maybe an
RPG with like 2 shots left (that is unless
Burt forgot to tell
Michael about the Mini Nuke he kept behind the cash register).
I think the more reasonable theory is the Mallers took off on boats. Its why
Saul couldn't find any trace of a large group of prisoners and their slaves.
Check the map, Maller HQ is near Manna Del Rey. I checked it out on google maps, it a dock. Most of the boats dont look like they could hold much people though, small craft and fishing boats. But looking around the dock there are a few that look like commuter boats or Yachts that could hold a lot of folks. O man why am I picturing "Water World"
