Spent 7 years at Lakenheath, on F-15Es though, 2004-2011. Were you a crew chief or avionics?

AF for 3.5 years during Viet Nam

(Not sure what happen to my last post?) I spend 3.5 years in during Viet Nam and was stationed in Fl - Patrick, and Germany Ramstein. I went TDY for most of my work - Turkey (2 times), Spain, Greece, and all around Germany setting up towers, telephone poles and operating equipment. My brother died (drowned) and I got a 6 month early out.



I really enjoyed my time and and saw a lot of Europe and some of the Caribbean.

Overnighted in Tripoli in 1959, don't remember the name of the AFB, but then don't remember a lot of other things anymore.
