The Cold War even reached San Francisco...

How quick Northern CA turned its back on the military.

Just outside of SF in the Marin Headlands lies a great trip down memory lane. That memory is the Cold War. Even northern CA couldn't avoid it

I got to tour one of those sites back when they were operational. (yes, that was a looooonnnnngggg time ago). Not very long ago I worked on standing up our new ones in the capitol.

I just ran into one of these sites in World in Conflict. There wasn't much of it left after the russians & I got done with our little spat...

I would say just San Francisco & Santa Cruz or any town the UC system infests except Davis an exception to the rule

There were no less than nineteen (19) active Nike sites within 25 miles of NYC, back in the late 1960s.
