We are pleased to announce our June Historical Society meeting will be held at the 664th Air Force/NADRM (National Air Defense Radar Museum) Museum. Robert Walker, Chairman of the 664th Reunion Committee and caretaker of the museum, will give a tour of the museum that is housed in one of the former FPS 26 radar towers.
Logan County played an important role for the United States during the Cold War. In 1951, the United States Air Force opened the 664th Aircraft Control & Warning Squadron on Campbell Hill, the highest point in Ohio, just east of Bellefontaine. The 52.7-acre airbase was part of the U.S. Air Defense Command that monitored the skies for enemy planes and air attacks. The 664th A.C.& W. Air Force base operated in Bellefontaine from 1951 to 1969.
Join us for this unique opportunity to see an important part of Logan County’s history.
Admission is free, and donations are welcome.
