Requested by the Sheriff’s Department at 3:14 a.m. on Dec. 21, four airmen from a Warren missile alert facility began searching through the blizzard at 3:30 a.m. According to a base news release, it took the airmen four hours to travel two miles, one airman driving a Case front-end loader to clear the roadway for the other three in a pick-up truck.
