Scuttlebutt S01 E20: Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach - Mines, Munitions, and More 

Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach lies on the Southern California coast between Long Beach and Huntington Beach.
Dating back to 1944, this 5,000-acre complex features 230 buildings, 128 ammunition depots, a wharf for loading and off-loading ships, a 900-acre salt marsh wildlife refuge, and all sorts of things that go 'boom!'
In this podcast we get an insider's glimpse into the only full-service weapons station on the west coast from Lt. Adam Tellez and MNC (Mineman Chief) Brian Chickering. And we manage to refrain - mostly - from dropping too many mine puns.
