The only place I did launch an recovery was at Sembach in the last
several
months before the OV10s left.

Remember the USAF H-60 that spent a week or so there in 1983? That was my
unit
TDY to Sembach and I was there.

Yeah, I remember, if I recall they brought that thing in on a C5. I was in
Job Control at the time.

There were two H-60s and we transported them in a C-141.

At the time we were the only USAF with H-60s.

There is more than one USAF??? :-)))

That did it, I'm going to fire my typist. I meant to say "only USAF unit with
H-60s."

But you knew that, didn't you?

'85-'87 Barksdale

A guy who was my shift supervisor at Luke in early 81 went to Barksdale,
the
last I saw him he was either the LSC team chief, or he was the NCOIC of
the
LSC.

Really big guy? Nickname Tiny? (aren't they all)

Could be, I don't remember him being that big.

He and his crew came to Blytheville in late 85 or early 86 for some
ALCM training. His "3" man was (I think)Bill Peterson, a guy I knew on
Guam.

Hmmlooking at the above, it really is a small world.

Yes. Every base I was at, I ran into someone I knew somewhere before.

Yep.

Oh, you can let them see it, just don't let them open it.

Come to think of it, sometimes it is a mistake to let the pilot see
the -1!g

I forget whether we had changed from 55 ARRS to 55 SOS by that time. In any
event we were based at Eglin AFB.

You've ever slept in your aircraft to keep the locals from touching
"her" - when in transit.
