Living on the central coast, Pismo Beach in the eighties, I saw some really cool rocket launches from Vandenberg.
In the late nineties, early 2000's I worked for a defense contractor that would test strapped down solid fuel rockets. 90 second burns. Amazing to watch.
We had the old Soviet liquid fuel rockets and of course the Minuteman.
I remember one time, I was charged with cleaning up a rocket stand and found a lot of solid fuel on the ground. Me and another employee lit it off. Oh boy.... Not too smart. That stuff went crazy and didn't go out until it was ready. Good times.
