To: Kathy in Alaska; I Drive Too Fast

I was stationed there in ‘62. Our job was to get as many sites “in the green” as we could during the Cuban crisis.
It was called the 341st SMW back then. (341st Strategic Missile Wing was then part of SAC)

It was an honor to serve there and years later I was convinced these birds and their crews helped win the cold war.

Met some of the best farmers and ranchers and ordinary Montana people who were all 110 % behind us and our mission.

Hard to believe it’s been fifty years and thank God these silos and launch centers are still there and doing there job for freedom.
