Excavation and construction for the USAF Cheyenne Mountain complex began on May 25, 1961 and took a total of four years and seven months to complete. Initial Operational Capability or "IOC" was achieved on December 15, 1965. The Cheyenne Mountain Complex became completely operational on January 1, 1966. *source*
