I’ve been to Ft. Ritchie and to Site R (ANMCC) I helped install an EMP hardened communication system at Site R and the mountain top. It was the GWEN system. It was scrapped after 6 months online. It took a total of 4 years to construct that nationwide comm system for the USAF. I also did it at NORAD CMC in CO and the NMCC at the Pentagon.

Site R ? I used to do some industrial instrumentation work at the Site "R" wastewater plant that was off site. I actually grew up not too far from there. The 9 hole golf course at Blue Ridge Summit was where I got my first job. I was pushing a mower after school and all summer at age 12 ( 1968 ).
