Selected as a Bomarc site, but as it neared completion in 1960, the program was curtailed.

In the late 1950s, this site was selected to host a BOMAEC air defense missile squadron. The Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District conducted the land acquisition, physical feasibility study, ground survey, foundation and material exploration, and facility design work. This facility neared completion in 1960, when the Air Force decided to limit the BOMAEC program to eight bases.
