FAA employee housing compound. John Keith and family were stationed at Yakataga, and his young son at the time, also named John Keith, submitted the following comment:

What we liked best about the mail was getting two new movies, I think every two weeks….long before Netflix.  There was a 16mm projector to show the films and even though I was just a kid, I was the de facto movie guy.  I’d show them at night when they first came, then any other time they were requested.  We had a small community center we used for that” (located on the far left of the above photo).
