A bit of trivia: I think, though can't prove, that I had the first, but not the last, "shack" (bullseye) with an AGM-28 Hound Dog MissileB as the Navigator/Programer while at Ramey. It was September 15, 1969, with AGM-23B 237 on B52G 590 at Statesboro, NY RBS (radar bomb site). Whoopee huh?
Joe Kata and I, along with many of the fine folks formerly at Ramey, participated in the Ghost Walk 3, successful live launch of an ADM-20 Quail MissleC Quail in June 1972. Jones, Jackson, Wallace, Turner, Willis, and Puccio were the enlisted guys who made it happen. I know Jones was at Ramey, but not sure of the others, but bet some were. I don't have first names--getting too old I guess, but saw Jones' picture in your photos. Many of the former Ramey folks were instrumental in the cleanup efforts in Rapid City after the extensive flood of June 1972.
