Cold War veterans reunite in Alaska
Several Cold War veterans came from all over the United States recently to remember where they had served on Nike sites in Alaska.
A two-day conference was held in Anchorage, after which they came for a tour of the interior of Alaska. They visited the military installations in the interior, and finished their tour with American Legion Post 30 hosting a chili, soup and salad dinner for them. The Chena Lakes recreation site had been a Nike site in the 60s. Two of the veterans remembeedr where their guard post was and took the group of 25 on a tour of where the guard post, barracks and motor pool used to be. They had a wonderful time and are looking forward to visiting Alaska again.
