Re: Geiger Key Hawk Missle Site 1965

I know it is marked Geiger Key, but I have doubts. I flipped it horizontal and it still doesn’t fit. We didn’t have any towers that short. I am assuming it is the CWAR. Ours was between the two launcher sections. Plus the extra berm in front of the launcher area, we didn’t have on Charlie (Geiger), Because of the hangers visible in the background, I am guessing maybe Alpha on Fleming key. Any thoughts?
