[Milsurplus] Phoney Radio Rooms

[J. Forster]

I *may* have some pics of Radio Central, and possibly other things, on
BB-59, but have no way to host them. If someone has a place to put them up
on line, drop me an email off-list and I'll look for them. They were taken
as snap-shots, through the plexi windows.

Best,

-John
