  1. I all ways keep one on the plane for use when you didn't have your flashlight handy.They gave off pretty good light when it was real dark.
  2. Fort Benning,Ga. 1967 Nov. Thanksgiving week we got socked in,and the flight crews wanted to go back to Sewart to be with there families. The crew chiefs wanted to stay with there planes. So they put us up in a condo we went shopping and had a thanksgiving dinner cooked by us it was very good turkey and all the trimings.And lot of libation. The weather changed and the flight crews came back and all was well.I remember this to this day it was a good time with the people at the time was your brothers.
