This is additional information re: my previous entry of a few days ago. I was asssigned to the 585th TAC Missile Group whose headquarters was at Bitburg. The Detachment was Det.4 Stinebourne June 1956 thru May 1958. My PH# 321 773 1327. My health is not good and would like to talk with someone who was there at that time before I launch myself for the last time.
This posting is by my friend Phillip Thomas also a member of the 38th TMW. I was the Mess Sergt. at the Steinborn site in 1956/58. I would like to hear from anyone who was stationed there when I was. My rank was SSgt at the time. My phone # is 321 773 1327.My address is 207 Ponkapoag Way, Indian Harbor Beach, Florida 32937-4188. I don't recall any of the names but remember the site as if it were yesterday. If the message is to the above email address, it will get to me. I do not have a computer. Kayo 'Red' Adams

Just returned from Germany last week, our 14th trip since 1988, still a great place to visit. Spend most of our time in Baveria & Austria now. -------------------------------------------- George Craig Thursday, 1/2/03, 12:15 AM Went to Germany in 3/54 with what was then the 1st. Pilotless Bomber Sqdn. from Patrick AFB, FL Went to Bitburg then to Landsburg with Det. #3. Then to Schwarzenborn/Knull. Was in Guidance section as a radar repairman. Bet I could still fire that MPS-9 up ! One trip to Libya to fire a few millses, interesting but it sucked ! Had to watch your back with those Arabs down in Garian. Brought a cute little German redhead from Immenstadt (down in the Alps) back to the land of the BIG PX in June 56. We are still happily married & have 4 daughters & 1 son. 10 Grandchildren & 3 Great Grand children. Retired from AT&T in 1988 & have made 10 trips back to the Fatherland sense. There last in Sept of 02 & planning another in May 03. Made 5 trips between 56 & 88. We stay for 3-4 weeks. Love Germany (especially the Alps)& those Autobahns. Drive over 3,000 miles each time we go. Really enjoyed my whole tour in the USAF. Nice link you have. Only 3 years old ? Looked over the members page. Most seem to be 'youngsters' as far as being former 'Missile Men'. :o) Did not see anyone I know. Been messing with computers over 30 years now.

Just a quick line to let everyone know that Joe Batten, head of the A&E shop and QC at Sembach 1963- 1965, is gravely ill in an El Paso nursing home and needs everyones good thoughts. I just got back from a quick visit and he is fading fast.
I want to thank Joe, Sarah, Max, Lois and our Board of Directors for another great reunion. Everyone appreciates the work you do to make this event happen. Also thanks to Roger & Chuck for making all the arrangements before we arrived. Aw and I enjoyed it all and as usual the stories got bigger & better. Already looking forward to the next one. See you in Ohio.
