General Caraway was enjoying his afternoon off , sipping his hot coffee and reading his new book 'diplomacy in the islands' he was resting and , at the same time watching over the nuclear weapon facility as per his orders.
Suddenly he heard some shouting and a gunfire . he raced inside seeng 3 of his soldier dead on the floor and 2 bodies beside them. He quickly picked up a pistol and and raced to the main control room . There he saw a man encased in a suit which had propulsion boosters and was tapping at the main controls he quickly unleashed a few bullets into the back of this man and the man slumped to the ground touching off the launch command as he did so. General Caraway saw a screen of the nukes launching and then he felt about 50 bullets hammer into his back , his last coherent thought was "i wonder where the hell that thing is going'. 20 tanks arrived full of armed marines.They quickly secured the facility but saw they were too late , 'it doesnt matter" said one of them ' the anti-air defenses will stop it'.

The next night on TV "this is breaking news im your host Kent Brockman"
"today our only nuclear weapons facility was broken into and the missiles were launched" " only god knows where it will land because the lately decseased General Caraway mangaed to sabotage their operation somewhat"
"for more news watch ICBM watch

OOC: Lol

In orbit, Kanuckistani recon sats detected the thermal flare of yet another missile launch, RADAR and LiDAR quickly locking onto the weapon as it cleared the ground; tracking it as their kind did with all such things. Nothing more would be done unless it threatened Kanuckistan's holdings, or, say, the launching nation asked them to shoot it down.
