Mr. Brian Hamen (Bonner county Daily Bee)
Know more about who staffed this tower, or when? Let us know.
I manned this tower in 1975 contrary to what Bonner County Daily Bee reported. I suspect a typographical error in the Bee’s publication. Very common for that fine newspaper.
Thank you for sharing, we will make sure it gets added to our documentation.
