A stone sign sits at the entrance way near the highway. The plaque says: "Prisons in America house many veterans. They are a positive force, helping to shape the lives of fellow offenders. Remember the important contributions to our freedom and give your support as they return to their respective communities. -Veterans in Prisons"

The former radar site is indeed a Federal Prison Camp now.
