Titan II Complex 373-4 Ham Radio Memorial Event 2017

Описание: This is the location of the first missile complex erected in Arkansas and is also the area where 53 men lost their lives during a tragic silo fire August 9th 1965. That tragedy resulted in the largest loss of life in the history of the Titan II program. The warhead that was located in this complex was later moved to Damascus Arkansas where it was involved in an explosion on September 19, 1980. Those two events are often confused even in the local area. The North Central Arkansas Amateur Radio Service arranged a memorial cleanup and an on air special event that took place on August the 5th 2017.
