Secret Central Europe forces hide in cavernous hub
From hidden underground bases in central Europe the command center can dispatch supersonic jets and nuclear missiles within 10 to 15 minutes of warning. Some planes could reach Iron Curtain targets in about three minutes. The post directs F100D aircraft to targets across a 37 000 square foot complex of 65 rooms arranged in three rows with linked passageways.

A description of a high tech defense system shows targets stored on coded punch cards with data on location elevation distance and weapon types. Digital computers perform bombing calculations to guide pilots and data can be sent in flight. Facsimile and teletype networks link command posts to bases and units. About 200 airmen run the operations center with 10 days of food. In Hartford a store detective arrests a 12 year old for stealing a phonograph record from a mobile crime prevention exhibit Jail on Wheels.
