This month's navaid is located at a U.S airport.  Its name is the same as the airport as well as the town it's located in, which is the county seat, even though it's not the largest town in that area.  The name, ironically, means "cold chill".
The photo was taken from a 767-300.

SFO VOR (San Francisco)

This navaid is at a major U.S. airport.
  
The airport, when it was privately owned, was named after a 19th century battle, in another state.  It's now named after a politician.

There used to be another VOR two states away by the same name, but the odds are that it was changed to avoid confusion.
