Great angle, these look to pack a real punch, and I hope I am never on the receiving end.

Terrific POV, clarity and contrast depicted in this pic of these city killers, Bill, but what happened to the Atlas and Minuteman ICBMs in this array? They were a big deal along with the Titan. Incidentally, I worked on the Atlas silos back in the 1960s.

Great angle, and mighty fine shooting. I notice they do not have the normal markings on the side. Cold war is over, or has it just taken on another form?

superlative POV, Bill. They remind me of those cold war movies about missiles almost strarting and the disaster avoided by 1/4 of a hair by the heroes!
