Do you know what's under the East Wing? - Dailykos

Beneath the East Wing is the PEOC, a secure underground bunker built during World War II for President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

It’s designed to withstand bombings and nuclear attacks.

It serves as a continuity-of-government facility, equipped with communication systems, oxygen supplies, and blast-resistant construction.

There are tunnels connecting the PEOC to other parts of the White House complex, including the West Wing and the Executive Residence.



Next he'll be demolishing NORAD.
