Satellite Photo of Bill's Pizza and Pub Taken 17, April 1993 from Terra server Data base at link below
Terraserver.com Best Current Satellite Photo Data Base Free to Public, But it has limited Coverage to date as it started with Soviet Sources. We were in a primary Target area so There are lots of shots of Libertyville in the records. Remember Hiding Under Your School Desks in Highland School during Strike Drills. This is the Reason Why. Great Lakes Naval Station, Fort Sheridan and the Vernon Hills Nike Site were all High Value Targets. The Arrow pattern of runways at the Vernon Hills Site is easy to see in the photos just track south-east from the area view of South Mundelein to find it. That is where the Libertyville High School Freshman Class is Going to school this year at what will be the Vernon Hills High School just off the north edge of the old base. The School will be using 60 acres of the old base for athletic fields. Then Play with Terraserver.com a bit to see What else you can find.
