Ah! Good old French Frigate Shoals. Back in the old days of chasing
Soviet missile launch telemetry boats around the Pacific, FFS was
"The"
place to be. Can you say crowded with three (count 'em) Three C130's
packed with "stuff" sitting there at one time just like an aircraft
carrier early morning launch of the dawn patrol.

Cheers,

Dave

PS: Fishing was great....



You musta bin thar' during the "monkey" dayz.

By the mid 1980's, most buildings were prestressed concrete, paved
roads
and even a sizable operational terminal building.

It seems we have two places being mentioned here. Diego Garcia and
French Frigate Shoals. I am sure JT's above comments refer to Diego
Garcia. I personally don't remember anything I would call roads on
the French Frigate Shoals airfield which measures only 3,000' by
500'. (See attached Google Earth file.)
