Comments/Notes:

MA-1 Flt.Line 1975-1984.POMO made us all assistant crew chiefs.Debriefing/Photo 1985 til closing,was amongst the last to leave K.I.!Went on to Florida to fix eagle parts in the back shops where they combined three career fields into one! Whew what a whirlwind ride that was! Glad to retire at Eglin after an exciting 20 year adventure.
