- Paul Robert's room at NSGA/Commsta
- Looks like propaganda to me :-)
- Shagak Bay, south half, from a vantage point west of Adak
town (the old White Alice radio site).
- Razorback Mountain on the right half of the picture. Same
vantage point west of town looking east (and a wee bit south
of east).
- Visitors looking at Shagak Bay; camera view north to the
lower slope of Mount Moffett.
- Visitors looking at Shagak Bay; camera view eastward back
to town.

- The old church. In an earlier era (1950's) this church was
down on the flats near what is now the AIMD aircraft hangar a
quarter mile or so south from Birchwood Barracks. It now occupies
the west end of Bering Hill and is listed on the Register of
Historic Places.
- Looking northeast on the back road, Bering Hill. The newest
building, barracks I suppose, is on the left and on the right
exist barracks and the chow hall (EDF, Enlisted Dining Facility).
- A fabulous view of Commsta/NSGA looking across Clam Lagoon
and the backdrop is Mount Adagdak.
- The road to Commsta/NSGA, view is north and perhaps a wee
bit west of north. Mount Adagdak visible in the background. In
fact, it is the background!
- Commsta/NSGA from the back, view more or less southward (and
a bit east). Clam Lagoon is clearly visible and in the distance
the mountains of eastern Adak on the other side of Sitkin Sound
and Kuluk Bay.
- The LORAN station at the northeast tip of Adak. It was abandoned
long before the other facilities on Adak. The advent of GPS
(Global Positioning Satellite) spelled doom for LORAN.
