OT... Hi Win, Especially if somebody dropped a wrench into the silo, as I recall. Yes, this incident occurred in Damascus, Arkansas. Certainly the worst Titan II incident, as far as I know. Is the Titan III with the strap on solid boosters still used as a satellite launch vehicle? Or Titan IV? Yes, most of these launches are from the facility at Vandenburg, near Lompoc, CA. Wasn't the Titan II was also used for the Gemini launches? Yes. I also recall recycling the military ICBM Titan II's as satellite launchers was considered, but found to be impractical. Not sure about this one, as I was a civilian by that time. Kind regards, greg
