1) Proceed direct to “PILGRIM STATE HOSPITAL”

“Submarine hunters were quite a warrior group of dedicated professionals. In 1944, to prevent German submarines from entering the Mediterranean, the United States Navy began patrolling the Straits of Gibraltar with PBY Catalinas fitted with magnetic anomaly detectors, or MADs. What this equipment did was measure the changes in the magnetic field made by a large metal object passing through the water. ”

2) When “1.0” DME from DPK VOR, turn towards “HECKSHER STATE PARK”
