Mike, I was also in ETA school over '68-'69.
I still tell stories about Chief Gurt...

Later,

I would be interested in working K6NCG.  Thanks for the update on TI.  I was stationed there for 9 months, 1968-1969.  I have great memories of ETA school and spending time at the ham shack.  I have lost contact with any friends I knew at ETA school except for one person and he lost interest in ham radio.  The “Star Barracks” were new at the time I was stationed there.  It is hard to believe they are reduced to gravel piles.  Any new pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,
