Loran Station Kure Island
U.S. Coast Guard
Loran Station Kure Island was a United States Coast Guard-operated Long Range Navigation (LORAN) station located on Kure Atoll in the Pacific Ocean. Established in 1960, the station played a vital role in providing navigational signals to military and civilian vessels and aircraft across the Central Pacific, particularly during the Cold War era. The isolated outpost was staffed by rotating crews who maintained the transmitter and ensured continuous signal reliability. Loran Station Kure Island was decommissioned in 1992 as advancements in satellite navigation technology, like GPS, rendered LORAN systems largely obsolete.
Loran station St.Paul Is,Ak
U.S. Coast Guard
LORAN Station St. Paul Island, Alaska, was established in 1943 during World War II as part of the United States' efforts to improve long-range navigation in the North Pacific. Operated by the U.S. Coast Guard, the station provided essential LORAN (Long Range Navigation) signals to support Allied maritime and aerial operations, particularly in the challenging weather conditions of the Aleutian Islands. The remote facility was manned year-round, with personnel enduring harsh isolation and extreme climates to maintain continuous signal transmission. The station remained operational through the Cold War until its closure in 1978, having played a vital role in both military and commercial navigation for over three decades.
