The largest military installation in the United States, WSMR and the 600,000-acre (2,400 km2) McGregor Range Complex at Fort Bliss to the south (southeast Tularosa Basin and on Otero Mesa are contiguous areas for military testing. On 9 July 1945, the White Sands Proving Ground was established for testing German and American long range rockets. Just seven days later, the first atomic bomb test, code named Trinity was exploded at Trinity Site, near the north boundary of the range. Andres Portillo was selected as recipient for the prestigious WSMR Hall of Fame award October 23, 2013. Andres is a Cathedral High School graduate of 1955. He and his five brothers and one sister attended parochial grammar schools in El Paso, Texas, approximately 50 miles from WSMR, NM.
