One story was still making the rounds in the mid-1970s was a new surveillance radar turned on sometime in the early 1960s. It immediately started showing multiple returns – massive attack numbers. Excitement ensued until they figured out they were bouncing a return off the moon and turning it into multiple moving returns. Had we operated on a strict launch on warning basis, things would have gotten very dicey. Cheers -
