Even when Camp Evans was active, the outside plant was in poor shape, Camp Evans cut to ISDN PRI , with dedicated fiber to Fort Monmouth to avoid the failing local loop well before BRAC closed the site.

Apologies if this is somewhat off-topic, but it seems pertinent given InfoAge's location in New Jersey and probably much of the audience here.
Verizon is in the process of applying to discontinue copper POTS service to 270,000 lines in 9 states, including New Jersey and some other east coast states: https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/26110070306/1
I seem to recall reading here at one point that InfoAge had a POTS line - is that still the case and did anyone receive a notice? Particularly given the significance of Camp Evans in hurricanes and other disasters, maybe somebody with VCF might be able to file comments opposing this discontinuance? (Comments can be filed at https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings/express in docket 26-227.)
