@Magnumkevlar It was closed in the 60's, because the ice walls caved in sooner than expected. The nuclear reactor was removed. They visited it in 1969 and it was already badly damaged by then. Now it's most likely totally collapsed.
I'm sitting 4 feet from one of the cooks ( well the cook in this snipit ) Staff Sargent Clide Teeter ( he says he dosent remember what he's was making ) he says they made more ice cream then anything...
This project was rather interesting. My father was actually stationed at Camp Century. I couldn't believe my eyes when I got to 6:26 in the video and saw my dad cooking the meal! I showed my father and it actually brought tears to his eyes. He just turned seventy-nine, but his eyes were as young as the day the video took place as he watched and reminisced. Thank you for posting this piece of his history for me to find.

Who is narrating this? His voice is very familiar.
