View into the boattail panel presumably blown off by Hurricane Frances.

Compare to the Atlas A at the Strategic Air & Space Museum, whose boattail has a launcher fitting for the support pedestal.

Picture 2 of 2.

The label to the upper right of the attach point reads "Aft Handling Point 7-91101".
