    Question is what shell company came to do the concrete work once upon a time was probably Bechtel corp. Once that is determined and the company is confirmed to not have existed you have a lead but all those wont talk did talk and wont anymore, are waiting to or are just tired and ready to die , Idk but in the 80's a few dozen concrete trucks would have been noticed even if at 3 in the morning over however long they took to remove components and seal entrances.

    just some fyi - this place was off-limits for many, many years. There was a gate with a sign that read "Lethal force is authorized." I find it comical that it's a park with signs now. Legend has it the bunkers may have been operational and might still be. A scientist determined that a humongous portion of the grounds have been excavated likely for the creation of an underground labyrinth.

    The proof you need is under Beltsville MD. Starting from the National Agricultural Research Center and continuing many many miles underground. Complete with presidential entrance below powdermill rd. Bridge over highway, By the powerlines . Many entrances that have been built upon with homes. I know where they used to be . Tunnels so big you can stand up and walk them . I know I've been in them. They also used lsd on people dying of cancer and for some reason they all had the same trip. There's an old military base beneath ground on the National Agricultural Research Center property. Now go do your research. That's where youl find more proof of tge Montaulk experiments... they think it's been forgotten there.

    Wow… who knew stranger things was partially/somewhat inspired by this “Montauk project” and Wikipedia actually, straight-up says stranger things was inspired by this too. And the fact that stranger things was originally supposed to take place in MONTAUK… is scary. Also there’s an episode of stranger things that’s literally titled “the Nina project” which sounds very similar to “the Montauk project” don’t know if the creators of stranger things confirmed all this to be true, but man… I’m telling you, I could go on FOREVER. The similarities…

      Pause to read is the best way, especially if the info is a bit boring. I was reading from a brochure and the signs at the different points of interest .

    Awesome Video! I love this place hence the name. I am writing the extended military history of Camp Hero, and the inner fence was the Montauk Air Force Station, and before WW2 the area was used for underwater minefields and was a seaplane base. There was also a major Navy base or Two in town as well as Camp Wikoff, an internment Camp for sick soldiers returning from the first foreign war in 1898. There were even Native American stockade forts and villages nearby. Anyways your right - this place has a lot to see to say the least. I wanted to let you know the large circle structure was for launching some of the very first drones, that would be used as target practice for the AntAircraft guns 1951-1957. Excellent video!
