They have a bazillion of those at Vandenberg AFB. You would think they

The greenies were the main reason we lost over two thousand homes
in our last fire, that and many of the rural homes still used shingle
roofs.
Fortunately the eucalyptus that grew up to block the sight of the
Chevron sign off Interstate five and La Costa had a habit of dying. ;-)
