Man, talk about flashbacks. hehe |
Somehow we've "mis-mecunicated!"
I was a 601st "Still Photo" weenie, flyin' Specter missions for "time"!!!!!

Dr E,
I got ya. lol Hell, we may have flown some together. I was an A1C then
and my name here is accurate. I chain smoked 10 cent a pack Marlboros. (Long since quit, though) Did you get to keep any of your photos? I used to have a bunch, but, in 78 during my separation before divorce, all my memorabilia stuff was mysteriously destroyed by water that 'backed up into the garage'. *****

GunnerMike,
heh. I'm bettin' we did. I was an E4, headed for Syracuse to finish my BA as a Photojournalist... that didn't quite work out. Apparently my grasp of military politics was somewhat lacking. I lost my sense of humor 'cause of that...
And, yes I do have a lot of photos. Most went to records, but I kept a bunch of the "out-takes" for meself ;-}
You were there when one A1C Jimmie Alley (601st) did a Brodie out of a Jolly Green (high bird) while shooting a SAR mission, I'm guessin'. He's on that damned wall too. Sheesh... lotsa memories are manifesting themselves now. Ubon Hotel schmorgasboard on Thursday nights... All you can eat, two bucks a head. The on-base Thai restaurant that had rock lobster (more like mud bugs, really) to die for... as long as you ordered a 'double'!
