The VHS cassette source is labelled, "Atlas Erection, Complex 36A," dated May 1, 1991. There's no indication which Atlas booster this might be.

An Atlas II arrived at Hangar J on March 1, 1991. It's possible this might be that booster, although we have no evidence to support that. Video of that Atlas II is at youtube.com/watch?v=V64rj8aGuEM. The first Atlas II launch from 36A was AC-101 on February 10, 1992.
