Tour North Dakota: Oscar Zero missile alert facility.
written by Julie R. Neidlinger 0 comments link this postThis applies to that.
I haven't been to see this facility, but I very much plan on it. I want to get a sense of what our facility used to be like.
I have been in one of these facilities while they were in operation -- maybe around age 12? Landowners who had part of this system on their land were invited to tour the sites, and my mom and I sent in our reservation a few months ahead of the tour as requested. On the big day, we climbed onto a dark blue Air Force school bus with a bunch of other farmers, and traveled to a site. It wasn't our site, but it was incredibly interesting. I still have impressions of it, vaguely, in my mind.
I hope they are able to preserve this site, but if not...I definitely want to see it before it closes down.
