Deactivated Minuteman II ICBM Launch Control Facility (G-1)

The former LCF for Golf Flight, comprised of 10 LGM-30F Minuteman II Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles. Nicknamed "The Heritage Connection" by its crews, G-1 was manned by elements of the 67th Strategic Missile Squadron, 44th Missile Wing, formerly based at Ellsworth AFB outside Rapid City, South Dakota. Though it oversaw a flight of LGM-30A Minuteman I ICBMs in 1963, these were replaced with the Minuteman II between 1971 and 1973. It stood at the ready supporting the flight until the Air Force began retiring the LGM-30F from service starting in December of 1991 and wrapping up in April of 1994, in line with international arms-reduction treaties.
