Default Pre SALT/START

The Titan I sites were all decommissioned prior to any of the SALT or START treaties beginning in 1965, some only serving 3 years of active service. Titan I required a 15 minute fueling prior to launch like the old Atlas system, so as soon as the Titan II and Minuteman I started to come on line the Titan I were rapidly decommissioned along with the Atlas series. Several of the sites still exist and you can find interior pictures of the old facilities which I like to give a feel of the place, here are some I have found.
