Al,
I got out of Nam in Nov 70 and went to Korea then
The folks from Soul had closed a site and moved down.
Do you remember a place called Duffy's
The old shed was the maintenance shop.
It had a dock on the end across the drive way from the other building.
We could back the trucks up to the dock and walk onto the tail gates.
Late in 71 the maintenance shop moved out of the shed
into the comm building.
Twice a year you humped every one of those R390/A
out of the listening building across the lot to the shop and
back. Not all at once mind you. But likely one a day
per man.
We was kids then and just did it.
Doing generator maintenance one day I killed the
DF operations for 3 days. More non standard
wiring in that lot than I ever seen in my life.
I was stupid enough to think I was suppose to do the
PM like it said in the book. No one clued me it was
a paper push job and I was not even expected to leave the
desk.
The antenna guys let me climb a tower with them one day
What a view. I had no idea we were so close to the Ocean there
until I got up on the tower and looked to the west.
You just never got over to that side of the camp and off base there.
Roger.
