What I love about that location is that the barracks are right next to the launch area and would’ve been destroyed by the backblast in an actual Nike rocket launch. Makes you question if the brass really thought the program would work.

@KanaMauna@sauropods.win @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org Pretty sure the missile crews were considered single-use.

@KanaMauna@sauropods.win @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org @mattblaze@federate.social The brass just assumed that in a real situation, nobody would be in the barracks, and the military would just rebuild them.
