Wow, a genuine UFO, or there is a story to tell about this structure. Was it a place the American Airmen frequented; what was the building used for?

Do any of you remember this?
I served at RAF Alconbury in 62 to 64 and don't remember anything like this so what is the connection to Aconbury Airmen?

It was a Macdonalds restaurant built a few hundred yards from the entrance of an American airbase in the UK. While the rest of us queude waiting for service at this one right from the start you used a touch screen to place your order. It was the start of the future in this area of the UK.

Thanks for the visit and comments. It was built in the 1970's I believe. It was built directly opposite the main gates to the airbase.
