In 1963, the USN tasked Technical Materiel Corp (TMC) to develop a
Transportable Communications Center AN/TSC-35.
The Commcenter/Receiver section consisted of twenty 40' vans full of
equipment that were bolted together on site. They were shipped to Nea Makri
Greece and installed to create NAVCOMMSTA Greece in late 1963. I have
scanned dozens of photos of the van interiors prior to shipment and some
during the installation process (prior to crypto gear install).

The photos show tons of M28 TTY gear
I have just started scanning the Transmitter Site photos
