In 1959, the US military built a subterranean ice base in Greenland

The idea was to test if such a base was feasible. Greenland is closer to Russia than Canada, so if it were possible to sustain a base underground, you could theoretically house ICBM missiles very close to Russia, under the Greenland icepack.
The official military report on the base and how best to construct one.
Video made about it
