Missile-related www sites

25 Feb 05

The one single best book about ALL US missile sites is “Defend and Deter – A History of the US Cold War Missile Program,” but it comes and goes from this site.  It had been under Cultural Resources/Cold War Related Studies and should return.  It’s 70 meg, so make sure your PC can handle it:

http://www.cevp.com/     then scroll down to Cultural Resources

Here is direct link to D&D that should work, but remember it’s a HUGE file:
