Titan Epitaph

Yesterday, I ran into a two-part article on the Titan Missiles and their silos. The article referenced another site and I spent some time today wandering through. Well worth checking out. Web site for Chrome Hooves Lots of photographs, drawings, scans of old blueprints as well as recent photos by explorers. The site is very active with the last update happening January, 2009. For a more general missileer site, check out Siloworld. I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA and there was an old Nike missile base about 15 miles from town. Went out there a lot when I learned how to drive. Never took photos though... When I was in school in Boston, there was an old gun emplacement near the Nahant beach and I went in there a bunch of times too. Fun times!
