"I arrived at Webb AFB on June the 16 1957 right out of Tech school, and left in Jan. 1961. Was assigned to the 3561st Flt. Line Maint. Sq.I was a crew chief on T-33. Had a great time in Big Spring, made a lot of good friends. Was lucky to get my aircraft picked to go to Egland AFB for a fire power show and our aircraft flew VIPs.I was at the reunion in 09, but not a lot of old crew chiefs there.If any one has contact with Bob Martin, L. Morehouse or C. Long please pass this along and let them know that "footsie" is still alive and kicking. God bless all our service men and woman."

"Arrived at Big Spring AFB in Jan 1952 to open up motor pool. Left for Korea Oct 1952. Wish I had Pix's, the motor pool was on the left as you entered the main gate and the maintaince shop was an old farm equipment shed. Those were the days. If anyone remembers the Perimiter bus that ran, I drove it most mornings. See you in Oct.2011."

"I was assigned to the 3560th Transportation Sgd. from October 1957 to August 1961. Have been back to Webb a few times, but not to a reunion. I am really hoping to see at least a couple of my old buddies there. I had great times at Webb and also in Big Spring. I met a lot of great people there. I have been trying to locate Jack (John) Bryson, Bobby Muchow and Charles Burton who all served with me, but to no avail. If anyone has any knowledge of these gentlemen, please contact me.

"Went to Webb right out of tech school (June '74 - July '77). Assigned to 78FMS instrument shop. It took many years for me to realize how good I had it at Webb. Will never forget the friendly folks, dust storms and, oh yes, the relentless freezing winter wind on the flightline during swing shift. Many fond memories."

"I had a good tour of duty as Flight Chief, T-38s, Golf Flight, at Webb AFB from 1968 thru 1971. Our flight shack was next to Hangar 25. I have a picture of that hangar after it became an abandoned ghost. Very sad."

"Hi, I was a foreign student of class 75-07 Nicaraguan second Lt sent to USAF for undergraduated pilot training (T37) at Webb AFB during 1974-1975. Unfortunately I forgot the first names of my instructors but anyway I wish the best to back then, Lt. Layton and Lt. Abbot. Will like to hear from anyone from my class or promotion."

"Came aboard straight out of basic training as a public affairs airman in April '72 when Webb's host unit was the 3560th Pilot Training Wing; converted to 78th Flying Training Wing in '73 (?). Served under Col. Ralph Liotta and Col. Stanley Umstead, both fine officers. Webb was a tidy, busy base in the early '70s. My main memories include: the prairie dog colony on the airfield; west Texas sunsets; watching a tornado approach from the southwest until it lifted just before it reached the base fence; "Northers" in the winter; and the wonderful, warm people of Big Spring. My oldest son, Paul, was born at Memorial Hospital."

"My dad, MSgt Raymond A. White, USAF, Retired, was stationed at Webb AFB from 1968 to 1972. He was assigned to the CBPO as he was a 73270. We live on Dow Drive in base housing and I delivered the base newspaper, The Prairie Pilot, I attended elementary schoo though high school there and loved it. We left Webb and went to McCoy AFB,Fl and then Blytheville AFB, AR, before my dad called it a career. My mom and dad bought a house in a retirement community in Haines City, FL, and have been living there since 2000. Unfortunately, my mom passed away in May 2009 the day after Mother's Day. My dad is 79 now and doing well. I followed my father's footsteps and went into the Air Force in January 1976 as a 732X0, military personnelist, and retired as a Master Sergeant in February 1997, So I guess I am the proverbial follow-in-my-father's footstep. Will be at the 2011 reunion. Sincerely, George G. White, MSgt, USAF, Retired"
