Back in the early 1970's as a Boy Scout we camped on the edge of the base but were warned not to wander from the camp site an not to talk about the location and anything we saw. Even today there is very little info to be found about this site.

I think some form of missile was also based here. The book 'Nuclear Battlegrounds' may have mentioned it.
