I pulled up Fort Campbell on Google Earth and found two air fields near it. One on the North end and one on the south-east end. I am not sure if either of these are where the old DZ used to be, but I saw no sign of a pea pit at either.

Having said that, I looked up two DZs that I am very familiar with to use as a reference and found the pea pits very quickly and easily.

The North is the actual FW airfield (Campbell Army Airfield), the South is a helicopter field (Sabre Army Heliport). There was a DZ across from gate 3 at Outlaw Airfield but it's gone now (moved to Waverly).

There is no FTCKY sport parachute club. There IS the 101st Airborne Division Parachute Team though.

I don't remember if Son DZ was still in use for HALO (group guys) or static line (also group guys).
