These are views of Argus Island taken from the official report of its destruction.
Argus Island was an outpost SOSUS station between two arrays of underwater sensors and the Tudor Hill Laboratory located on the southern edge of Bermuda. It was manned by:
One supervisor , electronic technician.
Two senior electronic technicians (both with broad qualifications including commications and digital circuits).
Two diesel mechanics/diesel-electrical , welding, plumbing and crane operator.
Two cook-baker stewards.
One general helper/maintenance Janitor.
Argus Island also hosted non-SOSUS research (to aid in its cover story of being the equivalent of a benign weather station). Among those activities was SeaLab in 1964.
