Raven Rock Mountain Complex Raven Rock, Site of Creed Tower a PEF Elevation 1,516 feet (462.08m) Location Location Adams County, Pa Range Blue Ridge Summit USGS quad Coordinates +39° 44' 2.40", -77° 25' 8.40" The Raven Rock Mountain Complex (RRMC) is a United States government facility on Raven Rock, a mountain in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. It is located about 14 km (8.7 miles) east of Waynesboro, Pennsylvania, and 10 km (6.2 miles) north-northeast of Camp David, Maryland. It is also called the Raven Rock Military Complex, or simply Site R. Colloquially, the facility is known as an "underground Pentagon". Ravens Rock is also the site of a deactivated microwave terminal, which was used during the Cold War. The unit was encased in a mostly underground tower, and known as "Creed” site 6. The site was deactivated in 1977. It was connected to Site R: but, access is still restricted. Microwave Radio Terminal Site Site 6 - "Cadre/Creed" Tower History and Purpose "Site-R" is the location designator for a major US military bunker located inside Raven Rock Mountain, next to the community of Fountain Dale, near Blue Ridge Summit in Adams County Pennsylvania. The complex is also known as "the underground Pentagon," and affectionately to its personnel as "the Rock" or "the Hole" but the official name is the Alternate Joint Communications Center (AJCC). Planning for the site began in 1948. After the Soviet Union detonated its first nuclear weapon in 1949, a high priority was established for the Joint Command Post to be placed in a protected location near Washington, D.C.

Weinberger, not a defense technocrat, managed a massive defense buildup of 1.5 trillion dollars over a four year period. A biographical approach to Weinberger illuminates Reagan’s selection, for in many ways Weinberger harkens back to an earlier type of defense manager more akin to Elihu Root than Robert McNamara; more a man of letters than technocrat.

  • Camp Hoover: a Brief Report on the Lore of a Presidential Camp on Catoctin Mountain in the 1930S
    CATOCTIN MOUNTAIN PARK NATIONAL PARK SERVICE Camp Hoover: A Brief Report on the Lore of a Presidential Camp on Catoctin Mountain in the 1930s Prepared For: P. Scott Bell Chief of Resource Management Prepared By: K.C. Clay, MAIS Historian August 2018 6602 Foxville Road, Thurmont, MD 21788 | Catoctin Mountain Park | National Park Service i Abstract Confusion abounds concerning the existence of presidential retreats on Catoctin Mountain. Oral tradition insists that Hoover built a fishing camp on the mountain almost a decade prior to Roosevelt’s Shangri-La. This apparent duplication of effort is seen as a waste of taxpayer money. Instead, documental evidence indicates attempted exploitation of the federal government by a local land speculator. ii Contents Abstract ............................................................................................................................................ i Table of Figures ............................................................................................................................. iii Introduction ..................................................................................................................................... 1 Historiography ................................................................................................................................ 1 Discussion ....................................................................................................................................... 1 Search for a Camp ......................................................................................................................
