Good chronological summary.
The only thing I'd add would be that the Green Mountain site was lost, not because of the 'model' rockets, but by some amateur rocketeers who blew a hole in the farmer's fence with one of their concoctions. Somewhat minor distinction, but a distinction nonetheless.
At least, that is how I have heard the story went.
