    Nike Missile Launch Site NY-56 is also known as the Sandy Hook Nike Launch Site or Fort Hancock. During the Cold War, this was one of the most highly classified launch sites in the country. Now a public park, in the last 50 or so years the park would have looked very different; heavily armed patrols were given permission to release attack dogs and shoot trespassers.
