I was stationed at Porter, IN with B-1-60 from late 1962 through 1963 which at that time went to Fort Bliss, TX to attend MOS 225 training for six months. Left fort Bliss for three years at Bitburg, Germany and was discharged in 1967. Served as an LCT ope ator in Porter, IN and as assembly person in Europe. I have many fond memories of the people I met during my military career. Keep up the good work and keep in touch. I'll never forget the nice people I met in Chesterton and Porter, IN.

Grew up in Gary, watched the sites grow and ebb. Wound up a platoon leader at C-32 in Porter. My grandfather ran a drug store at 3rd and Main in Hobart for 20 years, and as Hobart abuts Wheeler, perhaps some of the Vets got their medical needs there. T ured the sites in Lake County last Summer. A proud and sad time for me.

I was with HHQ Btry. 1st 65th Msl. Bn., at Site 7a, on the southern part of Okinawa. I was onl there for about 9 months because I had volunteered for field service in Vietam. The dates I was on Okinawa were 1/23/98-November 15, 1968. I love it, it was lik being in Hawaii, the weather was beautiful, women nice, and I just had a good time there. Made friends, drank alot....and everytime that I drive pass the site C46, in Munster, Indiana, pleasant menories flood my head and mind. When I was 0, 11, or 12 ear old, me and mine friends would bicycle pass the Munster site, never believing that one day I would b an RA in the Army, and then assigned to a Nike base, across the Pacific ocean. I remember that when I first got to the base, Site 7a, I immediately recog ized the same type of buildings that were over in Munster! Low one-storey buildings, painted light green, and some places, light blue...neat. And I still have a couple of myshoulder patches, un-use, yet! And I have about 5 or 6 pics of Site 7a(Charlie Btr . shared the site with us, great guys, we all got along)plus, a couple of weeks ago, I took my camcorder, and did a very nice job on C-46, in Munster, scanned the whole area of what was left of it. When I played the tape bak, it was beautiful....a record, neverto be loat, or destroyed...hmmm...maybe I should go back, and take some photos...hmmm.

Had the pleasure of commanding C47 at Wheeler and winning the Berry Award (Best ADA Battery Nationally two years running) with the men who really won it (F. Rameriez being one of many). The site was good times along with bad, but by far that site ran so ery well because of the men who server her, and the folks in the community who complimented what happened there. From "Tiny" who was our Santa at Christmas, to the teams who played ball there. And the severe snow storm, SNAP, ORE's, CMMIs, 100% on stat s and backing those who didn't, to FBI snafoos. Wasn't easy but it was challenging and rewarding. A very sincere "thankyou" from myself to all who served - not only for such a job well done, but for the dedication and loyalty they so sincerely and unsel ishly gave of themselves.

I like surfing the net and finding all the nike sites that are poping up. They all bring back good memories of a past time and places. I watch all the pages with guest pages hoping to find the names of some of the people I served with,so if any of you was around B-Btry south of Abiline,Texas from 1964-65 or at D-Btry to the south of Fairbanks,Alaska 1965-67 drop me a E-mail line or two. thanks and keep up the good work trying to preserve some of these old sites.

Thank you for your efforts. I am sure the realtors want to get their hands on these properties. (sigh...) I worked with a Henry Leblanc from Louisana who was in the Chicago defense system in the late 50's; early 60's. He lives here in Dallas and is reti ed from the phone company. If someone wants me to contact him just e-mail me. I was an IFC operator at A-4-56 (AJAX) in Rehoboth, MAss, and C-4-56 (IMPRVD HERC) in Bristol, RI in late 1959 through early 1962. I worked in the IFC van as an ACQ operator. I am from Sweetwater, TX. I worked at Channel 12 in Sweetwater, TX before m 'tour' and at Channel 13 in Lubbock, TX afterwards. Thank you for letting me sign your book. I hope every missileman eventually gets his name in it and thanks for your preservation efforts. dave

I remember the Nike Site--when I was learning how to drive in high school, I almost ran off the road staring at the cute soldiers stationed at the site! I know the Blast Camp located on the south side very well...However, I do not remember there ever bein a mayor of Wheeler--the town is too small...

Good stuff folks. I recall several visits to Porter when I was Launcher Platoon Leader at C-50. I have been the Director of Plans, Operations and Training for the Illinois Army National Guard for the past 10 years. In my position one of many responsibilities is Force Structure. The Illinois Army National Guard had two Battalions , 1st Bn, 202d AD(Ajax then Herc) 2d Bn, 202d AD(Ajax). Ultimatley both were closed, the 1st Bn was our last in 74. In 1988 the ILARNG stood up the 1st Bn, 202d AD(Stinger). I had the extreme pleasure in commanding the Battalion from 1988-1990. The Battalion HHB is located in Kewanee Illinois with Batteries in Galva, Dixon, Marseilles, and Streator Illinois. It is curr ntly commanded by LTC Tom Bowman. In 1991 we had another opportunity to obtain a second Air Defense Battalion. We stood up the 2d Bn, 202d AD (Stinger). The HHB is currently in Chicago, along with one firing battery, North Riverside, and Crestwood, Illinois. The Battalion is commanded by TC Jim Hankins. Both Battalions are configured as Stinger/Man Portable Air Defense Systems(MANPADS). Three Batteries in each Battalion are equipped with M113 A2 Armored Personnel Carriers (APC). The other two Batteries in each Battalion are HMWV's. COL Randy Harrison Dir, Plns, Opns, Tng ILARNG Camp Lincoln 1301 N. Mac Arthur Blvd Springfield, Illinois 62702-2399

I was happy to find so much on the Web about the Nikes, and now I see more is being added all the time. I am particularly interested in the "temporary" site called the Ogden Dunes site but actually over in Dune Park (now part of Portage.) That was repla ed by the one now occupied by the NPS. I assume the move was due to pressure from Midwest Steel, who didn't want a missile base on their land. (How ironic.) But it is very nice being able to find all this info on the Wheeler and other local sites and o Nikes in general, when books on the subject just are not in the libraries. It is disheartening that the local historical societies (of which I am a member of several) are so uninterested in Nike bases. I hope that something can still be done to save th "Wheeler" site and others. The idea to tear it down and then honor the servicemen with a plaque is a joke. They could have done that years ago and still can--without tearing the buildings down first! This county is in love with the concept of replacin old structures with new ones to honor history. Ha!

Greetings from near abandoned Nike site SF-37 in Newark (the San Francisco Bay Area) California. I live about 6 miles east of that site and 50 miles south/east of SF-88 (being restored). Thank you for letting us view your photos of C-47 and your efforts to preserve it as part of our national heritage. The site that I worked at, C-41 in Jackson Park in Chicago is all park again, not even a little marker. I feel good and bad about that all at the same time.

Stationed at C-47 1966-1967. I was an Integrated Fire Control Technician (24Q20. C-47 was designated as the nations best firing battery sometime between 1960-1965. The mayor of Wheeler at that time attended the firings at McGregor Range, Tx. C-47 was rate #1 after the tests. I have a "Nike Story" regarding C-47 posted on Ed Thelens web page under Nike Stories. I do have some pictures and will make them available. I think this site should be saved. You may want to try and enlist the Steel Mills as a suppor er of the project. Best regards - "First to Fire"
