Several points to consider.  Afsc-bmo.af.mil is at 131.62.71.1 rather than
132.62.71.1.  From my vantage point on DDN, I get a network unreachable.
Chances are an AF Concentrator has recently been installed or has failed.

The !P response from MOFFETT-FLD-MB.DDN.MIL is a port unreachable.  Look at
the man page in [NETDIST.DOCS] for the distinction between port (!P), host
(!H), and network (!N) unreachable states.

MOFFETT-FLD-MB.DDN.MIL appears to be down or overloaded at the moment as
the traceroute to your site is getting routed through MCLEAN-MB.DDN.MIL,
SURAnet, NSFnet, and CERFnet even though we're only about 45 miles apart.
