Any ceremonies at Stansted, the home of the ol' 344th?


I dont know but I doubt it Art, Stansted is
now a major commercial airport.


Originally it was a cowpasture. It got levelled, they lay down a runway and
threw up a load of Niessen huts and we (the 344th moved) moved in. Now a major
commmercial airport. eh. I guess the ol' 44th left a mark of greatness on that
ol' cowpasture. (grin)
