Greenham Common Command Bunker Tour CRUISE MISSILES
Ойын-сауық
Cruise Missiles were stationed on this base. It is now stripped of its runway and all the old buildings are used by civilian industry. This was the command and control rooms for the whole airbase. From here decisions were made during a World War 3 scenario. This was arguably one of the most heavily defended places in the United Kingdom.
See some old videos of mine visiting many years ago when I had hair...

Royal Air Force Greenham Common or RAF Greenham Common is a former Royal Air Force station in the civil parishes of Greenham and Thatcham in the English county of Berkshire] The airfield was southeast of Newbury, about 55 miles (89 km) west of London.
Opened in 1942, it was used by both the Royal Air Force and United States Army Air Forces during the Second World War and the United States Air Force during the Cold War, also as a base for nuclear weapons. After the Cold War ended, it was closed in September 1992.
The airfield was also known for the Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp held outside its gates in the 1980s in protest against the stationing of cruise missiles on the base. In 1997 Greenham Common was designated as public parkland.

Thanks Matt. Nothing wrong with a quickie every now and then 👍
For those who couldn't hear what the guide said regarding the decontamination powder - its Fullers Earth an aluminum magnesium silicate. Interesting trip matt!
Liked the vlog again good job Margaret P
Thankyou for this bunker video 👍👍
Matt, well done for getting on the tour of the Command Centre. There are similar decontamination, and accommodation facilities at the Quick Reaction Alert Shelter, which is part of the GAMA setup onsite. These buildings were way after JFK, though at the time of JFK shooting there were USAF on site at Greenham, but the command Centre and GAMA were a lot later. I lived about 2 miles from here for many years, and there are lots of stories about tunnels and nuclear accidents, none of which stand up to rigorous investigation. Greenham common has its own "strategic reserve" mythology style rumourmill.
My uncle worked here back in the day, many times attacked by the woman outside of the compound when in his bus going to work in the morning. Shame he has Alzheimer's as he would have stories to tell no doubt.
Thanks Matt great video from Cally in Bristol uk 🇬🇧👍🏻👍🏻
Super interesting video Matt. Fascinating stuff 👍
Glad to see that this site has been maintained for prosperity and not just left to rot. Thanks Matthew 😎👍
That was awesome. Really interesting and it's still in amazing condition. "They wish Nixon had been shot" ROFL

My brother and I visited greenham common IAT in 1983 what a show, seeing the SR71 flying was a such a privilege.There were hundreds of CND women outside at the time.Its great to see there’s a small part of this once massive strategic base left for everyone to enjoy.👏👏👏

The constant ticking heard at the control panel is to indicate that the PA system is working.
Fantastic video mate I wonder how many places like this we don't know about
Really great video Matt. Did I miss it though or did they never actually go into the main command room?
Thanks Matt for this very interesting video 📹 I hope you do more in the future 😀
Great video, love how you corrected the tour guide on his history 🤣🤣🤣 good to see you You doing any videos with dark arts soon?
Reminds me of former US air force base in Suffolk RAF Bentwaters with above ground bunker command buildings which also has the big doors with airlock . Now a museum . Obviously another former US airforce Cold War base with same set up.
Great video again matt,was this the only building on site or are there others "off limiits
Very cool! How was the food?
So interesting Matt x
What was the stuff he said was the white powder that he put on his hands? Fullers earth? It looks like Diatomaceous earth . Interesting video Thanks Matt.
@TheSecretVault switch that damn indicator off at 6:12 it's worse then a Volvo's seatbelt warning light🤣

@@TheSecretVault yep indeed it does, just a shame they like to draw it out as long as they can and nit pick anything they find. Instead of going after criminals that are causing harm, they have to make decent folks lives as hard as possible.
Great video mate, how come most people was wearing suits/dressing smart.
just got to the interesting bits
