    Radio Tech (30150) '66-'70 at Langley AFB in 316TCS. 6 months in FMS, then 3 years in 38th TAS til it was sent to KS. Finished up with 6 months in 37TAS. Spent 6 months TDY at Tachikawa in 1968, with week-long trips in to Nha Trang and Cam Rahn.
    I was the Avionics midnight shift NCOIC when Paul took off from Mildenhall. It was exciting at the TAC CP that night. Lots of stars in civies at 0430. I thought the Russians had finally done it.
    Spent a month in South Korea (Taegu) with 12 or so C-130s in 1969.
    We flew the 82nd into Andrews when the hippies marched on Washington, and moved the 101st to Glenview NAS for the Democrat National Convention in Chicago.
    A good time was had by all.

  1. I don't know anything about the mods, but we had those three planes in the 38TAS (316TAW) at Langley in the 68-69 timeframe.
  2. What about Jeannie Rose in Tachikawa? Complete with bleachers, IIRC.
  3. I saw a buddy start done during the 38TCS' initial ORI at Langley in August 1967. We passed the RI and were TDY to Europe on Operation Sunshine Express 3 weeks later.
