Hi Jim.

Yes, the Point Montara lighthouse is the facility your father was assigned to. During the war, the lighthouse housed several military units. One of those units was an anti-aircraft training unit. Since most Armed Guards were gunners, in all likelihood, your father was assigned here for gunnery training before being assigned to the Oliver Wendell Holmes.
