Went through Alamagordo often when I lived in NM. I lived in Silver City most of that time 1972-1986. First 9 months I lived in NM was in Las Cruces. Wife liked the mountain better so we moved there.
Lots of my ham op friends worked at the labs & military bases. Good bunch of guys.
White Sands is an amazing place.

We may have a mutual friend, Doug R. He worked at White Sands, has lived in both Cruces and Silver, and is still a ham, in more ways than one.
