Hi kidl, Pretty much, sadly so. But the "we" really refers to our military and their capabilities. I had the pleasure of spending 13 summers up in Alaska in the late 90's and 2000's. During those times I got to see a lot of the outer bush country. Very often an old closed air force base or a shut down and yet maintained facility air base was seen. If we wanted to have a presence over that sea route, the infrastructure is already owned and basically developed. Need to add the people and planes. In general the people of Alaska would welcome the commerce. Any military personnel assigned to do duty in Alaska would be in heaven if they like fishing and/or hunting. Ah but to be young and in the Coast Guard - what a lifestyle for a single person who enjoyed the outdoors. Alaska IS the last frontier! Remembering our history, The US bought Alaska from the Russian Czars - Seward's Folly : historylink.org When fishing Prince William Sound, one exits The Straights of Valdez and travels through the treacherously shallow waters of Tatitlek. Once a Russian Community that housed ostracized Russians who trapped Sea Otters for their survival. When boating past that remote village one can see the blue onion tops of their Russian Orthodox churches en.wikipedia.org On a 70 degree day in July, there is no finer place to be, looking at the Chugach Mountains that reach down to the cold waters while fishing for Halibut with chunks of herring while drifting over the rocky bottom. AH but to be young again! sigh. Bob
