Minuteman Missile National Historic Site....

In the silo..
...South Dakota, this missile is no longer coming to a place near you,
the Salt Treaties have closed the site, and the remainders aren't new;
but in the "Cold War" these were ready to launch, from here,
there still are sites that are 'open', but we need not fear.

The Iron Curtain has been torn to shreds,
and children sleep safe, all night in their beds,
our country stills keeps it's eyes in the sky,
but there'll be a day when only birds fly.

A wall in the Control Room

The Control Center buildings

The areas in black are closed, the red 'bases' are still active
