Colonel Starker had been through the President's Missile Warning Conference Call process dozens of times. With the calm, determined and experienced voice recognized by all present, he reviewed the current status for the President."Mr. President, we have 250 confirmed missile launches detected and reported by two DSP satellites. The locations of all the launches are validated as known missile launch facilities within the USSR. A total of 250 missiles have been corroborated by PARCS or at least one of two ground-based BMEWS sensors. The trajectories and projected points of impact are both military and civilian targets. The military targets are command and control centers, including the Pentagon and Cheyenne Mountain; major missile launch capabilities; and bases, posts and ports where major nuclear weapon assets are resident from all four military services. The civilian targets are all major population centers in the US or Canada. The Warning System Assessment from Captain Dugan is forthcoming immediately."General Gerr reminded the Telecon participants that it was now 0810Z and the closest attacking missiles were now approaching ninety seconds to their impact points on coastal targets. The decision for the President's missile launch authorization had to be made immediately.Dr. Dave Felsburg, having completed his five-textbook series on outreach, evangelism, and church growth, offers his first novel from the technical side of his forty-year bivocational career.
