I can't believe the Air Force left all the debris that is still there. You would figure they would have gathered all the debris and stored it somewhere especially since it is on U.S. soil. Makes no sense to me at all. As small as some of the pieces look, I'm sure there have been many pieces walk off with people as a "souvenir" and that is just wrong and so unlike the military!
