That's hilarious b/c the US military is the 47th largest greenhouse gas emitter on the planet so there is no way any base can go 90 days w/o the grid.
That just means they burn a lot of fuel. Generators can burn the same diesel as a boat, and most can burn Jet A, too.
Where do you think they get the electricity for the bases now?
Usually from power plants, although they sometimes use generators when off-site power has outages. One of the Air Force bases near me recently installed a specifically designed multi-fuel generator: https://www.afmc.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/4421866...
Also UK citizens told to prepare three days of food and water. What do they know that they aren’t telling us?
