The Sgt. Jerome F. Sears U.S. Army Reserve Center ("Sears Center") is a facility proposed to serve as a west-side auxiliary emergency operations center for PBEM, among other prospective uses. However, it has never been prepared for that purpose and the building is not accessible to the public at this time. It is included in the NETwiki because PBEM has used (and may again use) the facility for NET training.

The Sgt. Jerome F. Sears U.S. Army Reserve Center ("Sears Center") is a facility proposed to serve as a west-side auxiliary emergency operations center for PBEM, among other prospective uses. However, it has never been prepared for that purpose and the building is not accessible to the public at this time. Since it had a PBEM use at one time, it is included in the NETwiki archive.
