U. S. Army, Nike Missile Base DF-01, Integrated Fire Control Site, Administration Building/Small Arms Room, Texas, Denton County

            Nike Missile Base DF-1 was built in 1959 in Denton County, Texas north of Dallas and Fort Worth. The base was one of four air defense bases constructed during the Cold War era to defend the Dallas-Fort Worth area (DF) in the event of Soviet aircraft attacks. The Dallas-Fort Worth area was vital to United States security because of the presence of defense industries and Carswell Air Force Base, home to strategic Bomb Groups and Wings.  Nike Missile Base DF-01 was decommission in 1969.  In 2018, when the photograph was taken, the site was largely abandoned with possibly one structure used as a residence.

The photograph captures a portion of the Administration building. The Small Arms Room is to the right.
