David Larrabee General My goodness, too bad we can photograph this scene today! /DL 5/21/2011 5:27:56 PM
Stu Slaymaker General Thanks for the comment, David. I was 15 years old with an Argus C-3, I aimed and shot. I was very lucky! At least we can still see the Hickory Creek. 5/22/2011 11:43:43 PM
Jim Satterwhite General I was an airman at the training base in Rantoul IL in 1968 through early 1969. That chair in the obs car was my favorite perch! 5/23/2011 12:46:52 AM
Stu Slaymaker General Jim, thanks for the memory! I assume this was during the time when the Gov't still paid for a lower berth. Or did you just pay your own way? 5/25/2011 11:45:13 AM

Mitch Markovitz General It was great being with you that day. I still have my slide. I can still taste, and the place is still operating, Carl's Red Hots. 9/19/2015 8:09:41 PM
