I was stationed on Adak '83-85 timeframe and was around for the closure while working my GS jobs for NAVFAC. Probably one of the few who know where the underground hospital is on the way out to NSGA. It all became obsolete as spaced based assets could do much more for much less money. I remember the high suicide and single sailor pregnancy rates as Island Fever set in.

Yup. I'd go up to the MC bar on Bering Hill because they were the only one serving Foster "Oil Cans".
