Army moves 20-foot satellite dish from Fort Detrick to Camp Lejeune
An East Coast Telecommunications Center unit hauled a 20-foot satellite dish 420 miles to Camp Lejeune for the Solid Shield exercise. The 20-person team faced beltway traffic and narrow highways, set up in about 10 hours, and earned praise from Marines for efficiency. The MSQ-214 system is a mobile, state-of-the-art battlefield comms terminal, first deployed to Fort Detrick in 1982 with units sent to California, Europe, and Tobyhanna Army Depot.
