The STRATCOM headquarters is the most dangerous place on earth.

USSTRATCOM stands for United States Strategic Command. It's one of the eleven combatant commands in the Pentagon, headquartered at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska.

Traditionally, STRATCOM's mission was to direct a nuclear war, if it were ever to occur. If that wasn't dangerous enough, STRATCOM experienced a tsunami of changes after 2001.

STRATCOM went on to be assigned many more "responsibilities" such as:

• Prompt Global Strike
• CyberSpace Operations -Space Surveillance and Reconnaissance
• Missile "Defense"
• Dominant Intelligence
• Electromagnetic Warfare
• Multi Domain Integration
• Global Command and Control
• "Combating" Weapons of Mass Destruction
