As a kid living at a fighter base in the early '60's in the southwestern desert, sonic booms were commonplace. I don't recall any instances of windows shattering anywhere on the base....
We love DM being in Tucson and will put up with the daily/nightly aircraft noise. We know that are protecting the nation. Many of them go on 6 month tours of duty in the war zones. But they are well trained in doing that mission. Thanks AirForce.
