Actually, this is one of John Lear's photos, taken in May 1978 from a location on Groom Lake Road near a manned gate (I'm not sure if its the same location as the current gate).

The Red Hats organization began operations at Area 51 in the early 1970s, taking over the former A-12 hangars on the North Ramp. Initially a detachment of the 6512th Test Squadron's Special Projects Branch, the Red Hats became the 6513th Test Squadron in December 1977.
