HA HA Small World Indeed
Well you are right, it is a small world at times. You are another guy that met his wife while stationed in Columbus. Were you in training there? Now for the other small word item. I spent 18 months from December of 69- April of 71 at Karamursel Air station, Karamursel Turkey. I then spent my last 9 months at a Navy site called Card Sound while stationed at Homestead AFB. the Card Sound site was located south of Homestead. My best friend was also stationed at CAFB before going to Quam.
I remember getting to watch several B-52 (BUFF's) taking off during an ORI one time at CAFB. It was an impressive and loud display of American air power. :clapping:
BTW, I was born and raised in Jackson, Clinton and lived in Madison for many years. Also, our Son finished school in Mechanical Engineering at MS State while his now wife was attending MUW, or the "W" as it was known.
Small world Mike. My wife is from Jackson, MS. We met when I was stationed at the SAC base in Columbus, MS, and she was in college there. And I too got to spend time in Guam and Okinawa as well. SAC was transitioning back them and moving north with fewer bases so I got to spend my last tour in Izmir, Turkey. Really enjoyed it over there.
