I discovered an interesting website by a person that took part
in the installation of Jupiter missiles in Turkey in 1961.
He has some great color photos of the event. The Jupiters have
the Turkish flag and some other symbols painted ot their side.

This is one of the events that led to the Cuban Missile Crisis
less than a year later.

The URL of his website is:

Yeah. Tried again and got in, went to a page, tried to go "back", and lost
the site again. Guess I'll wait till later...
