Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This lighthouse was first lit in July 1860. In 1939 the US Navy established an intelligence listening post (Station "J") at the lighthouse and constructed the barracks building for naval personnel and their families. The secret installation was designed to intercept German U-boat radio messages, warn Allied ships and help US forces attack enemy vessels. All in all the men of station "J" were responsible for locating 60 plus German subs.
