Interesting, after doing talking yesterday about the torn tape its interesting to read, and Im curious for anyone experienced to say how accurate it is.

I often wonder that even in the message handling room, the noise would be a dull roar if everything was actually running. Just the hvac alone is loud.

   I unexpectedly came across "Huh? Whadya Say?: Inside a Torn Tape Relay Center" by Guy Thompson.
   I really enjoyed reading this short novel about life in a Torn Tape Relay (NAVCOMMSTA Philippines Vietnam era). It seems like a well-written authentic story portraying the constant workload in a major relay and fleet support center.
   It's a quick (71 pages) but very interesting read - $1 on Kindle or $5 for the paperback

No relation to author, etc.
