Hi Shawn
A few years ago Les Fisher and I got permission to check out this area. Supposedly there were some FOX parts there from one that had been used for a hard target. It is a narrow spit of land that sticks out into the water and was ideal for gunnery practise for the Trenton Air Base. We had to take one of the airmen from the base to keep an eye on us and make sure we came back alive. Because of the ordnance that had been used there the navy had been called in to sanitize the land and the surrounding water so that the area could be given to another government agency. We rented a boat and spent the day scouring the area but only found the straps for the spare fuel tank on a Staghound. No FOX. The sergeant who accompanied us let me remove the remainder of an expended rocket that had obviously hit something real solid. He enjoyed his day away from the base and got a bottle of Scotch out of it.
Cheers,
Barry
