Yep...I don't know exactly where on the Eglin Reservation it was dropped, but we're about 45 or so miles north, as the crow flies. I was working outside when it went off...heard and felt the blast (blasts...there were actually two), and saw the cloud.


Here is where the MOAB was tested, if you scroll out you will see DeFuniak Springs to the NE.
