That missile silo falls under the auspices of F.E.Warren AFB, in Cheyenne Wy. I was assigned to the 90th Security Police Squadron there in the early 80's. As reconmike pointed out earlier, these fences are clearly marked, in large red letters, "Restricted Area...Use Of Deadly Force Authorized". I can remember security forces having to deploy to these same type of "protests", on about a monthly basis, at some of the more remotely located Launch Facilities. These were largely perpetrated by idealistic college students, but a fair number were orchastrated by Catholic priests and nuns. I see that twenty some odd years has changed little.
