Wife and I worked on the Cape in 1995 and 96.
During the Gemini mission manned flights.
She worked for Chrysler Corp, who did the fuelings.
I worked for Burroughs Corp, who provided Guidance and tracking systems.
We witnessed the Atlas II-B evolution from the nearby Pads.
When they launched, it felt like an earthquake.
The whole Cape shook from the blast force of the engines.
Awesome..
