Richard,
Yes, C's were gereral receivers from DC to day light.
I see you were a F and thus specilized in some digital stuff that will
still get you shot for discussing in detail and a G.
I think the G's were the direction finding stuff. More flavors of that than
most people would guess.
The thing we all had in common was R390's and lots of them. When every
thing else was done there was an operator standing in the door wanting a reciver
fixed, and at least one R390 needing to be located and hauled to the shop
for PM. Most of us 33's worked 6 out of 8 days and at least 8 hours. Shifts
rotated days swings and mids. Long break was between mids and day shift.
Days were the worse shift, You had all the day stuff to do like escort and burn
detail and going to sick call and still had to get the work done. If you
had volunteered and like being an instructor at the school house, Ft Devens
could be fun. If you were not into the Army games and could do it with ease
then being at Ft Devens was just another hell of its own.
So were you from the time of Connies or after?
