2nd

The 2/56
BOC in its final configuration (as of December 1968), as
seen from behind the Ready Hut: the VHF radio van is in
the revetment (and its vulnerable antenna mast moved to
a location inside the fence, close to the front gate); the
80-foot UHF tower is fully functional; the AN/GSS-7 antenna
is on its radar tower (with the OC, radar, and UHF commo
vans below it on the driveway, concealed by camo nets),
and so on. As always, Charlie Battery's MTR is "guarding
the flank"!
