Ahead of me, barely visible through the haze was El Toro Marine
Air Station.


Correction. Now that I think on it, it may have been a Navy Air

base. Can't
remember and too lazy to look up a chart.


You were probably over the old blimp base (with its two famous blimp
hangars), which was converted to a Marine helicopter training base for
Vietnam.

Actually he was over the Oscoda Air Base here in Michigan which is why
he was so low on fuel.
