It was a different era. I'm sure the town's people were discreet. Nonetheless word would have percolated. Hundreds of men would have come from out of town to build the thing and then returned. Did they keep stum? If they didn't who would have they told? There's no internet forums. You could tell a newspaper but they would either be patriotic or they would try to enquire further and get nowhere. What matters is did the soviet's know? There is still much to be declassified. And of course it's all a bit silly. In the event of an attack would any of this actually pan out and function as it should? |
