Hi folks,,,,,,,,,,,,I am looking for a close up photo of the Tram in operation at Tatalina AFS.

thanks dick

I am looking to find men that were at the 780th A F S at Fortuna between 557&161 and served with me.

For Robert Campbell. I read your note of 7 Feb 12 about Mt Hebo AFS with great interest. The FPS-24 search radar was removed after the collapse of radome #3 in Feb 68. You were referring to the installation of the FPS-27 search radar (it came from Miles City). Do you have any photos or diagrams concerning the FPS-27 or modifications to what had been the 24 radar tower (inside or out)? Are you familiar with the radome that was installed for the FPS-27?

I was at Mt Hebo in Sep 10 at the reunion. Enjoyed my visit but could only think about what had been. In 1984 the site was demolished and returned to nature. At least the Forest Service did not allow piles of debris to remain or the skeletal remains of buildings.

I was TDY from McCellen in Sacramento in the summer of 1969 to Mt. Hebo Origin. I was in the 689th GEA as a welder rebuilding the radar after the wend took out the main radar. It was an 80 foot tower. I Built the Clistron tube stand , tube room interlock doors, railings and a ton of brsckets all over the place.I really miss that place.

I work with Youth With A Mission on the retired 716th AC&W base in Lakeside, Montana and would be interested in any old photo's of the base anyone has.....,thank's
