Greg atop the January snow drift, halfway up the side of the BOQ, January 1975

This is after the drift had receded a bit.  The BOQ is two story.  The tip of the drift reached about half-way up the side of the building.

The snow plows everywhere had to contend with drifts like this that blocked roads all over the base.  One drift just before the housing area was like a ramp of snow.  If anyone was silly enough to try to drive up and over the drift, he'd get stuck atop the drift because the snow dropped off on the far side.  That drop off was not apparent on the up ramp.

Evidence

In your cringing helplessness,
will your buried missilemen,
undisguised in this defense,
be blamed for all the destruction?
Accused and unearthed in capsules
built only to save them
for the time it took to launch?

Gone,
friends, support, the foe,
who will have vanished, doubting their resolve.

Proof could be merely detecting wreckage
to those living enough to care.
If they are trapped, intact, underground,
encased in concrete,
the trace left of us can too clearly show
who was at fault.
