On Army post. Located on the RV park, the underground access is locked up in the RV park. Buildings still stand around the area, and are used for recreation division purposes, There is what appears to be an Ajax refueling stand near one of the buildings. The repair facility for the Kansas City area still stands but it is near the airfield and they are redoing that area. Nothing inside from that period.Admin area is now a housing area. Radar site, only pads remain and are now on private farm property. Launch control buildings only remain near RV park.
