Camp Hero, located in scenic Montauk NY, was established in 1942. It was recently re-opened to the public as a state park.

After world war 2, the base was basically used as the east coasts main defense against the godless commies. Incase there was ever a red dawn type invasion on the US, this would be the first line of defense.

The SAGE Radar tower was built in 1971 by the United States Air Force. By the time it was built, the base was used for military purposes during the Cold War.







In this area of the park, the silos for the 16mm guns were located here for coastal defense while the United States was fighting in World War 2.



One of the silos where the guns were kept. It is now a picnic area.




The Village, while being far from it, appeared to be an inconspicuous, sleepy little fishing village.

In reality, these were the living barracks and quaters for both the Soldiers occupied there and the Scientists during World War II.

It was disguised as a small town to remain hidden from any planes that might be flying overhead.



This "church" was actually a gymnasium that soldiers recreated in.





On the way, we saw some undeground entrances hidden in the hills.





Finally, we reached the cliffs



There were some beautiful views.
