Saturn IB Holddown Arm

KSC displays a single Saturn IB/Block II Saturn I holddown arm at the base of the Saturn IB in the Rocket Garden.

There's a full set of eight holddown arms under the Saturn IB at the Ardmore Welcome Center on the Alabama-Tennessee state line.

A quick look at a number of online vintage Saturn IB "on the pad" pictures reveals relatively few good pictures of the holddown arms, but the one good picture I found shows the holddown arms painted in this color scheme, rather than the blue at Ardmore.

As of now, I have not yet sorted through all of my pictures of the Saturn IB holddown arm, but some other page references this location. Thus, this is a "place holder" version right now, with only the pictures actually referenced. Come back some time later to see if I've finished up, or drop me an email to request me to prioritize the rest of these pictures.
