In the wake of the Cuban missile crisis, I was assigned to the Armed Forces Radio and Television station on the U.S. Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay. My tour of duty (1964-65) was probably the most enjoyable of my years in the Navy. What follows are a few photos -- some a bit worn with time -- of the AFRTS facility (both the old building and then the newer one at the Morin Family Center), the base, and some of the people with whom I worked. Thanks to fellow Gitmo survivor Hank Harris for providing some of these photos. -- Larry Miller, Spearfish, SD
I believe this Gates control board and the turntables were salvaged from the Marine Bakery location and used in the Morin Center facility. But most of the television gear was all new.
