Hi George

Did you know any of the gang with the 54th ARSq. at Goose Air Base circa
1964?

Cheers...Chris


We sent one of our chopper pilots up there back around '59 when I was with the
46th ARSq at Otis. He thought it would be better than an assignment at Thule,
because what with Quiddividdy Village (sp?), he thought there might at least be
a place to buy souvenirs or get a beer! Not the brightest candle on our cake,
trading a 12 month separated tour at Thule for an 18 month separated tour at
Goose because of the amenities.

I can't think of his name at the moment, but he did finish a career in the AF
and retired as a Lt. Colonel, which none of us who knew him as a 2nd Lt. ever
thought was even vaguely possible. (^-^)))

Pretty close George!...it's Quidi Vidi (pronounced kitty viddy)
