RE: (erielack) Tower designations?

Some in Indiana made sense:

WR - "Wabash River" - In Huntington, the EL crossed the Little Wabash River.

GR - "Germany" - Pershing, Indiana was named Germany prior to WW I.

DA - "Decatur" - Decatur... natch!

Others I can't figure out as easily, like GS at Kingsland.
