Rudmin got interested in these war plans in the 1980s when he was living in Kingston, Ontario, just across the St. Lawrence River from Fort Drum, the huge Army base in Upstate New York. Why would the Americans put an Army base in such a wretched, frigid wilderness? he wondered. Could it be there to . . . fight Canada?

The quotes in this piece are just wonderful. It *says* it was written up in December last year... but one can't be too certain it's not just an April Fool's Joke, I suppose.

No. They put this god-forsaken place here to have somewhere to stick Alaskin based soldiers for cold-weather training!!!!! I'm serious. This is where they come. It's nuts. It's cold. It fucking snowed this morning. :(
