A few years back I was stationed at Bergen-Hohne ( the british army camp next to Bergen-Belsen, the concentration camp ) The flat I was in was about 50 meters from the range-road. When a convoy of tanks was going past, we could tell whether they were british Challenger, American Abrams or German Leopards from how the ornaments on the shelves vibrated and danced.
After a while there you automatically filtered out the noise as being normal background noise, the same way you would if you were living in the flight-path of an airport.
