Nukes and Convicts in Your Own Backyard

Don't want a prison in your backyard? Better yet, how about a nuclear missle base?

The good folks in Lorton, Va, got a two-fer in the early days of the cold war, with the Lorton Correctional Facility (about which they knew) and the Nike Missle Base (about which they did not). Think convicts make bad neighbors? Sometimes, having Uncle Sam next door is worse.
