I was a lowly 2nd Lieutenant at Ft Monmouth in 1968. I was going thru a
tropo scatter class. I used to love to drop in to K2USA in that wooden
barracks building. I don't remember much except that it was waay cool
to me. I wonder if there are any pictures of the place online?

Maybe the termination was changed in later years. I was permanently
assigned to K2USA from '63-'65 (not bad duty for a ham). We ran
thousands of phone patches to/from SE Asia on that rhombic and the 20m
monobander @ 90 feet. I used to break into QSOs between two local VKs
chatting via ground wave with that antenna. I was the only signal they
could hear.
You probably knew Mike Reason. When I was there, he was a local kid
who used to hang out at the MARS station. Great guy, now SK.
