I remember when the Air Force rearranged all the flying squadron numbers, and we flew out to California to pickup the 53AS assets which were in storage, I was the First Little Rock maintainer to wear the 53rd patch as we flew home, proud of it too. However maybe now that the AMC units will outnumber the AETC units at Little Rock, they\'ll move the base back to AMC where it belongs. With Pope\'s BRAC and the Dorf\'s conversion to flying Barneys, I don\'t see the Little Rock staying in AETC. I got to da Rock Jan 85, 314 TAW, and departed in Jun 04, from the 463 AG, I work the flight line the entire time, and LOVE it, I sure would Love to see Little Rock back in AMC.
