This internet site is dedicated to all the men and women who have served in a HAWK unit under the Army Air Defense Command (ARADCOM) and specifically to those who served in C Battery, 6th Battalion (HAWK) 65th Air Defense Artillery in Key West, Florida.  

The site was developed through the efforts of an old group of "cold-war warriors" who served in that unit in the late '60's and early '70's.  

Welcome to both our old Charlie Battery missile site and our new internet site.  Take a walk down memory lane and learn even more about the HAWK system that defended our skys for decades!

It is also a legacy to our wives, our children and to our grand-children. Through it, we might be able to provide them a glimpse of who we were back then, and how we served.  But above all, developing this site was an act of love that allowed me to salute those men who I shared a brief, but significant, part of my life with.  I will be eternally grateful for having had the privilege of serving with you!
