Book Overview

Between 1955 and 1957 an unprecedented engineering and construction project took place above the Arctic Circle culminating in the building of 61 radar stations that would become known as the Distant Early Warning Radar Line, or simply, the DEWLine.In 1960, at the tender age of 19, Brian (Simon) Jeffrey was the youngest radar technician to go North to work on the DEWLine. This book documents many of the events, stories, and adventures that he went through during his 3-years with the Federal Electric Company as a Radician.In 2012, Brian got permission to return to the DEWLine, some 52 years after he left the Line for what he thought was the last time. Join him in a trip down memory lane as he returned to Hall Beach (FOX Main) where he had his 20th birthday in 1960. Things had changed.
