What is the plan of the castle? The U.S. is preparing for the possibility of a major war that could disrupt power grids and disrupt global supply chains on U.S. soil, and the Pentagon plans to keep major military bases active for at least 90 days without electricity, fuel, water or outside supplies as part of its "fortress" program, Fox News reports. "We don't want to rely on standard civilian urban infrastructure to manage our national defense. That's an intolerable risk," Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said. To survive a malfunction, the military is deploying portable nuclear reactors, massive battery storage, and autonomous microgrids. "Power is now a battle," Parnell warned.
