Tracking Distance a video documentary by Greg Marshall was completed in 1997 at the Banff Centre for Arts as a co-production.

Canadian Forces Station (C.F.S.) Dana, a NORAD Pinetree Line radar station, operated from 1962 to 1986, with over 200 service personnel and their families. It officially closed on August 30, 1987. In its 25 years of operation, countless military families and personnel were connected with the station. Tracking Distance is a video documentary that examines a portion of the tangible legacies of the Cold War; to contrast personal histories with national agendas.

Sounds thought provoking with your description, Bill. I'll have to check this one out especially since it's only about 30 minutes in length. An easy watch on an interesting subject, at least to me. Thanks for sharing.
