The story of the Groom Mine is certainly interesting as it pertains to the history of that region of Nevada, and it has been heartbreaking to read about the abuse the Sheahan family suffered over the span of several decades due to atomic testing, military training, and flight test activities.

I was sorry to see the Air Force finally take over the mine property, though I have to admit I was surprised they hadn't done it sooner considering the range of activities being undertaken at Groom Lake.

I would very much like to speak with some of the family members and interview them about their final visit to the mine before it was closed off for good.
