Taking a detour from our typical happy animal and scenery touring, we took a tour of The Delta-01 Minuteman ICBM launch facility,
decommissioned at the end of the Cold War. Quite the sobering place. The
chamber is buried 100 feet below the earth behind a sealed 6 foot steel and cement door, two officers were always ready to receive the order to turn their special keys and simultaneously start and end World War III.
