Yes the fact that NAS is still closed to visitors especially to go to the naval Air museum which is one of the crown jewels of the Pensacola area and tourism, is ridiculous!
Plus the lighthouse and the national historic landmark of Fort Barrancas which the public is supposed to have access to are still not accessible to the general public. Supposedly they’re moving the west gate past The museum but it’s been years in the works and no news on when that will happen!
This foreign muslim pilot training needs to stop, No amount of vetting will stop these acts of terror on Americans, not now, not ever. Saudi Arabia should be held accountable. Let them train their own in their own country.
It’s time to open the base back up. Past time really. We the People are being denied this local treasure because the geniuses in the Pentagon let some mooslim dude come over and train with U.S pilots. The 9/11 hijackers were all Saudis. Geniuses!
