Extra Special Bitter is a traditional English ale, which is served with a lower carbonation than most North American styles.

The Key West NAS Radar Site (1962-Active) is a Cold War Air Force Radar Station first established in 1962 near Key West, Florida and named after its location. This site was incorporated into the BUIC I system as a NORAD Control Center. Initially assigned a Sage ID of Z-209 and later a JSS ID of J-07 with the shutdown of the remaining vacuum tube SAGE System direction centers in 1983. The 1983 FYQ-93 computer systems installed in the ROCCs remained in service until they were replaced in 2007 in a transition to the current Battle Control System-Fixed (BCS-F). With the upgrade to the BCS-F system, the number of control centers was reduce and the station became an active FAA Radar Site.
In October 1962 the Cuban Missile crisis began with the installation of Russian missiles on Cuban soil. A series of escalations put the United States and Russia at the edge of war with a U.S. embargo on shipping into Cuba. During this period all U.S. Radar sites were on high alert and the Key West NAS Radar Site provided surveillance over much of western Cuba and coverage of southern Florida. The missile crisis was averted but it had demonstrated the need for radar coverage of this critical area.
A U.S. Army Hawk missile battery was deployed on the Key West NAS during the missile crisis and data was shared with them. The Army AADCP site was designated KW-18DC.
