I have been on a lot of bases with Martin Missiles most were destined to phased out soon after I arrived. I worked in TEMS most of the time but did my time on a launch crew, most notably in Bitburg in
Already signed in but changed E-mail. Still looking for Jim Skelton. Any help out there?
I was planning on attending the orlando Reunion,however because of work reqirements as a result of the latest incidence around the World Trade Center, I unfortunately will NOT be able to attend. Hopefully I could attend a future one if there is one . however I would like to thank all of those who are involved with making this possible and do appreciate the opportunity. Regards, Roger St. Germain

Hi. It's nice to see the Mace has not been fogotten. I found you on a google.com search for Mace missile one boring morning. I just ordered 'Launch Enable' today. I will check back soon.
DOES ANYONE HAVE INFO ON A CAPT ALMAN, STEINBORN CO?
GREAT WEB SITE, MEMORIES, AND RECALL OF COMRADES, ATTENDED 99 REUNION IN VEGAS, NOT ABLE TO GO TO ORLANDO. HAVE A GREAT TIME.
Glad to hear about this organization. Hope to renew old friends.
Kennedy,Burns,Krom,Kinkle,Dupont,Miller,Stevens and Hederick where are you guys???
Radar guidance(MSQ-1A)!! Anyone recall that? After the missiles were in the air , they had to be guided. Would like to hear from anyone that was in the TM-61C squadrons at these times and places.
i see so many comments from guys that had to be in the same places as i was, but don't recognize many names. i was at orlando from oct. 61 till june, 62, then to kadena, 498mms until dec. 63.i was part of the guys who uncrated, assembled, and activated most of the 'B' birds, (hardsite). we had 33 birds, all but one active, it was cannibalized down to a shell since parts were so hard to get. i also remember middle of the night trips out to the sites to change out the ever failing inverters.sure would like to see some familiar faces at olando
Assigned to Site 2. Activated site in Mar of 62. Cabling 'pulling' was our exercise in the last half of 1961. Seeing the Okinawan pick up the doors and moved them into place was very impressive. Impressive from the standpoint of what a bunch of people can do with teamwork when there is no heavy equipment around. Wonder if there is anyone who has pictures of the doors being moved? Orlando AFB, Jan 61 to Sept 61; Kadana AB, Okinawa, Sept 61 to Mar 63; Patrick AFB, FL, Mar 63 to Mar 65; Kirtland AFB, NM, Mar 63 to Jun 68.

Previously signed in last year. Just wondering if a list of Orlando go-ers was going to be put on the website or in the Newsletter some time around the first week of september. I really enjoy both the website and the newsletter. Keep up the good work, Joe.
I was at Hahn from Aug 58-Feb 60.I worked in the Comm vans at A flight & C flight launch flights, mostly at C flight until it was phased out and was sent to MOC in the underground building.I remember the launch officers were Capt. Billy Harless, Capt Beatty and Lt. Koenig. I was subsequently re- assigned to Eglin where I was cross trained as a missile guidance and control tech on QF-80 drones and the MRW-5 ground station. Any C&G folks going to the reunion?
HAD SOME REALLY GREAT TIMES AT BITBUSH, GOOD FRIENDS , GOOD BEER AND ALL. WE ARE SIGNED UP FOR THE REUNION, HOPE TO SEE A BUNCH OF B BIRD TROOPS THERE.
I was the one having a cup of coffee in the base cafateria one morning with some other guys and an airman sort of went off his rocker and thru one of those heavy sugar containers. Made a direct hit upon my cranium and knocked me cold. Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Anyone remember the time a guy pulled up in front of the barracks a little fast and layed his car on its side infront of the front door. Best I remember, this didnt go over too well. Hope to see some of the ol gang at Orlando. I was with the 586th. 405th 69th at Hahn and the 71st at Bitburg. I had already signed in but thought someone might remember these little incidents.
