A Terrier-Lynx suborbital rocket is scheduled for launch between 9 and 9:30 p.m. EST, December 14, for the Department of Defense. This launch will not be webcast nor will updates be provided on social media once the countdown begins. The NASA Visitor Center at Wallops will not be open for viewing the launch.

No idea. Until now, I thought it was supposed to be at 9AM. They never broadcast anything for the DOD launches.

Yep. Scrubbed for tonight. The weather is perfect, so I'm guessing it was a boat in the recovery area.
