They were within a couple of miles of the Naval Weapons Station in Goose Creek (north of Charleston). It is the home of the Naval Nuclear Training Command, where they train sailors in nuclear propulsion for submarines and surface ships.

The Charleston Air Force Base (nearby) is also the largest C-17 squadron to supply the troops overseas.
