El Morro Radio, New Mexico, January 9, 1952

Photo taken by the local Grants Newspaper during the rescue of an F-51 pilot, Capt William H. Palmer of Dayton OH, who had bailed out the night before, south of Zuni, New Mexico.  He had been trying to reach El Morro CAA field (LA-A site 59B) but had to jump and broke his arm after hitting the tail surfaces of the aircraft.

El Morro Radio, originally commissioned in 1933, can be seen on the left.
