I spent a whole career involved in military (Naval) communications
planning, from single units to entire fleets, and never once included
amateur radio as a component of that planning.

Civil Defense guys like FEMA in fact do count on amateur radio in
emergency situations.

NORAD, which is definitely military, does include ham radio in their
plans, so does the Office of Homeland Defense.

BS all you want, but just a few weeks ago I sat in a seminar with USN
Rear Admiral Daniel Stone, Director of Logistics and Engineering for
NORAD/USNORTHCOM and he says differently.

There you go again throwing around other peoples names and titles, but
you don't appear to have one.

No credibility whatsoever.

Maybe not for "secret" traffic, but routine stuff would be handled by
hams to
offload the more important communications channels. Or maybe some
"secret" stuff, encrypted and disguised to look like boring routine
traffic, is
handled by hams, but they wouldn't be aware of it.
