Resolution Island Air Force Station (United States Air Force):
Opened in 1954 as Resolution Island Air Force Station of the United States Air Force, with the radar functions being run by No. 920 Aircraft Control & Warning Squadron. The station would guide interceptors from the 64th Air Division at RCAF Station Goose Bay.
Although officially a Pinetree site, it was rumored to be a listening post for spying on the Russians.
The station closed in 1961.
The site was re-activated by the Canadian Government as an unmanned North Warning System radar site in 1991. Most of the original buildings remain, mixed with new radar towers.
