"David Hartung" wrote '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) 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. Oete |

My second time in Saudi we transferred our operations from a trailer right on the flightline of Riyadh AB to the Southwest Asia/Joint Intelligence Center (SWA/JIC) out near the RSAF headquarters at USMTM. My supervisor (deployed all the way from Alaska) was amazed at how many people I kept running into from my assignment at Clark AB in the Philippines. It became a running joke with us. I remember one day when the Navy had an EP-3 static display set up for anyone with a green badge (SCI security clearance) and Ed (my supervisor) and I went over to take a look. The guy briefing the aircraft was a Lieutenant/O-3 who really knew his ****. He gave the impression that he could've sat any position on the aircraft and done the job. As he's giving us the briefing he kept giving me a funny look. He finally interrupted himself and goes, "Say, don't I know you from the PI? Didn't you used to work mid-shift CQ sometimes for the Double Deuce (Double Deuce being the 6922nd Electronic Security Squadron)? The look on Ed's face was priceless as I realized I recognized the Lieutenant as a former Watch Officer from the Navy side of the house, yet another person I used to know from the Philippines. A different service, a different country, in the back-end of an EP-3 reconnaissance aircraft. Yes, it's a small world. -Jeff B. yeff at erols dot com |

From: "David Hartung" "B2431" wrote in message ... From: "David Hartung" 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??? :-))) Dan, U. S.
