Fort Knox is actually empty. They cleaned it out years ago.

"It safe guards the vast wealth of the United States" The U.S. national debt is currently around $36.22 trillion 🤣🤣 We broke as a joke! Fun fact, its takes about 31 years just to count to one trillion.

Audit would be nice though find out if anything is actually there.

While in the Army on a training mission I apparently was flying my OH-58D Kiowa Warrior helicopter too close to the most outer fence at Fort Knox. A polite man’s voice came across my radio and simply said “You’re too close lead aircraft, move away immediately.” I don’t know how they knew my team’s internal frequency and didn’t feel too close, but I moved outward and on my way. Yes, not even the U.S. Army pilots were trusted to fly “too close” to Fort Knox. It was a cool radio call I’ll never forget… I simply replied with one word, “Roger.”

Many years ago when I was in the US Army, I was told that when our scientists used quite a lot of the gold to make the machine that was used to make the nuclear bombs that we dropped on Japan. When they were done with it , they took the reactor and buried it because it was highly radioactive ☢️.
