"I was stationed at Webb from 1970 till Sept11, 1973. I was a Crew Chief on the T-37 's. I was on the Bravo and Charly line. I was responsible for 3 planes. I was chosen to be Crew Chief of the month three times while at Webb. I went home and married my wife on Dec. 19, 1969 and brought her back to Webb. We lived off base on 72 nd st. My daughter was born on base on Dec. 13, 1970. I am retired and my wife (same wife) and I enjoy our family and 4 grand kids (two from our Big Spring Webb Texas daughter and two from our other daughter born later. Webb and the community of Big Spring was a great experience. We enjoyed the warm Texas hospitality. Someday I will be back to visit."

"Yesterday we lost one of our own. Gene "Sunshine" Johnson bid us farewell. Sunshine was a T-37 instructor during the mid 1960's. I was his student in 66F and actually received an e-mail from him the day before his passing. He had stayed in contact with several in 66F. To his family, friends, former students, and fellow pilots :" Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth...........................Put out my hand, and touched the face of God" HIGHFLIGHT. So long my friend, so long."

"Webb was my 1st permanent station after basic and tech school in early 76 and was the acting base Veternarian and an A1C until I left there with less then 50 people still there. I got stationed at Chanute which was put up for closure and then later closed. I still have friends that I met in the community. I will never forget the dust storms. I never got any recognition for what I did due to having a civilian supervisor. "

"It was my honor to help with the Renunion 2011 this year and I met so many nice people. They were so excited about all the things we had planned for them and stated they really had a good time at all the events. We even had a sand storm to welcome them back to west texas and then washed it off with a good rain. Welcome back home to all of you and we were happy to have you and your guest with us for the weekend. Write us and let us know your comments. Sherry Hodnett Presidnet of Hanger 25 big spring, Texas"

"I was stationed at WAFB from 1963-1966. My duty location was WAFB Control tower as a shift supervisor. I was FAA Senior rated in control tower and rapcon. The student squadrons at that time consisted of T-37s and T-38s (T-33s were being phased out) Tactical aircraft were F104s stationed on the south side of the base. I enjoyed my tour of duty at WAFB. And met some wonderful people on and off base. I worked part time for radio staion KBYG as a radio announcer in Big Springs. From WAFB I went to DaNang Air Base Viet Nam, then to Upper Heyford,England. I retired from the USAF in 1976 at Offutt AFB NE as a MSgt, - Master Air Traffic Controller - First Sergeant. Went to college and received a BA in Business from Bellevue University, Ne, then to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Universiy for a Master of Aeronautical Science in 2002."
