Distances between chapters

Of the first nine chapters of APO-USA, none of them are less than 3 hours travel apart and the ones that are only 3 and 4 hours apart are only that close because of interstates (built in the 1950s). Alpha and Beta are 4 hours apart, mostly on the Pennsylvania Turnpike, Gamma is about 3 hours from Alpha on an interstate that I know wasn't even a thruway in the 1920, Delta is two days travel south, Epsilon is half way across the country, Zeta is all the way across. Eta is about 5 hours (today) from Epsilon and Theta is about a days drive south of Alpha. Iota is about 4 hours (today) from Epsilon.

Kappa is a brisk 15 minute walk from Beta, but that's definitely the exception in the first alphabet.
