I agree that the status of Navy ships that were at sea at the time of the outbreak is a huge question. And crews in ICBM silos and underground command centers, etc. I suspect that the fact that they weren't mentioned in COL Kimmet's briefing means that they either didn't make it or they are not in contact with Fort Irwin.
