| Per former Badger Ordnance Employee Carolyn Dallman: The aerial photo of Badger was taken in 1945, not in 1953. It shows construction in the magazine area in the southern part of the plant. The white rectangle next to the road in the upper left corner is the Toelke Cemetery, per Verlyn Mueller at the Badger History Museum.... The foundation of the Steidtmann barn is towards the right center. |
