Jcapsparkchaser Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Sonny, what can I say I am speechless! It was a time 65- to 72 where we grew up real quick! Naha for me was my first real time away from home and at 19 yrs old . I met some of the greatest people and to this day I would do it all over again! Ken will remember being sent down from CCK because we were undermanned in the FMS. When I got to the 374th FMS Electric shop Tsgt Lucero was the NCOIC, most of our 5-7 levels were either at TSN, CRB, or up in Ubon, plus can't forget "E" flt ( Vinny A.) oh and we were working 12's with no days off. When I left in June of 70 we had a SMSGT as NCOIC, the work schedule was 8 hr rolling shifts 4 on 3 off and each shift had at least 4 MSgt.s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mt.crewchief Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Bob thanks for the great pictures! You know I'm not sure I ever saw that place in the daylight! I can still remember the smell! I see from the list, that I must have missed a few of the clubs. Once I got my 5-level, I started to go on a few CRB inputs, a 60 day TDY, then 90 days in Blind Bat in Ubon. Then off to CCK to learn another language and another Bar district. I am going to save those pictures they are so good. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
