For more information on the Nike Missile program the Nike Missile society (nikemissile.org/) has all the information you need to know. Also as I look over my last post I see that I accidently typed 87c instead of 88c. Sf-88c is located on Wolf Ridge in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. The road that used to lead up to it has washed out in several places so you have to hike to get to it. The previous website has some information on it but I am not sure if it is up to date. The imagery from Google earth is from 2009. What I have gleaned from Google is pretty much location, how to get there, and what the condition was several years ago. Also I found a source saying that one of the towers that a radar dome used to be positioned on is collapsing, which Google earth doesn’t show.
Big business versus Medal of Honor Marine

This story enraged me. Basically it’s BAE wanting to sell super advanced sniper rifles (better than what the US uses) to Pakistan and then lashing out at a ‘low level’ employee who didn’t think it a good idea. That ‘low level’ employee is the only living person to receive the US medal of honor and knows a thing or two about the good guys.

I just read that myself couldn’t agree more
it’s pretty hard to fight a war when your allies are your enemies
Those guys might have to fight their way out of afghanistan -
One of today’s world’s ails: “managers” being put in charge of experts. It happens all the time, and in this case, even when lives are involved. A sad affair.

They way they are representing this in the states is horriffic. I read a story on Yahoo news today that framed the story as though the Sgt Meyer was actually suffering from PTSD or had some other mental problem from his experiance in Afganistan. The article started with mentioning how President Obama commented that Sgt Meyer was very “down to earth” but then this is framed like some tragic statment implying that he is disturbed. Worse then that, the story has since been removed :oops:
