"I am grateful for the opportunities that I have to read the comments of former airmen and Officers who served at Webb AFB. I served at Webb between October 1952 after completing my General Jet aircraft Technical School at Amarillo AFB, and stayed until I re-enlisted for six more years, in May 1955. I served both as a T-33 Crew Chief and also as a Periodic Inspection team member in the Old hangar. I had many wonderful friends at the Base and also in town. I have been back for the3 most recent Air Base Reunion this past October.2009. I was so disappointed due to the downtown area being so changed and being redeveloped. Also the base has been changed so much. I guess it is what is called progress. I am sorry, but i like it the way it used to be. John"

"I was Stationed at Webb AFB (Big spring AFB) from April 1952 to Oct 1958. When I arrived the main gate was a tip tank box with a sign-in book. I have a lot good and bad memories. I was a crew chief on T-28's and flew on B-25's and C47's ( Base Flight). I was in food service at first (KP), Transit Alert, and Field Maint (scheduling). Had a lot of good friends and in my 20 years of service, I had the pleasure of serving with some of them again at other duty stations. Would be nice to hear from some old buddies."

.....walk around.....
Another walk around - the 2,000th one
Strap into the hot-seat - the check list is done
Fire up the engines - get ready to roll
Pull out the chocks - once again on the go
Out to the runway - cross over 35 right
Vance Four One Niner - ready for flight
Forward the engines - to maximum power
Another work day begins - accelerate passing the tower
Pull up the nose - wait for the lift
Fly off the concrete - a wing's magical gift
Aloft once again - up come the gears
Just another job - after a couple of years

"I was a student pilot in class 66-F. Gene Johnson was my instructor and he can be found with a comment on the guest book pages. Went on to fly F-4s out of Ubon, Thailand and did take part as a Gib in Operation Bolo. Another student of Johnsons was Bob Houghton who was on the famous Pardo's Push. Another member of the class is David F. Gray who is my youngest daughter's Godfather and was a POW (F-4 shut down out of Ubon) for over 6 years and is well known for his MIA /POW activities . cowles6@verizon.net"
"This is a great site. I was born here in 1972 - dad was stationed here, working on T-37s and T-38s. I left at age 3, but remember horny toads, stickers, and rattlesnakes! I drove through Big Spring many years ago and recognized some of the landmarks. I know we lived on Langley Drive."
"Graduated UPT with class 67-H, flew EC-121, C-130A, B-52G at McClellan, Naha, Robins, Anderson, George, Osan and Blytheville. Retired 1987. Have not visited Big Springs since graduation but planning on doing so in 2010, hopefully in conjunction with the reunion. Any 67-Hers out there, please email me at c130aNOSPAM@emarqmail.com"

"I am looking for information regarding a man who would have been stationed at Webb at least in 1967 named Lee Suttoon (not sure on the spelling of his last name). Supposedly he was from Syracuse, New York. Any information is GREATLY appreciated."
"I first ran across this web site on March 24, 2009. and posted some comments at that time. I continue to return to it and review the latest entries. I was stationed at Webb from September 1954 thru late 57. The statement that I find in almost all posts is that "Webb assigment was the happiest and best remembered assignment thzt I had". I have to agree, of my 7 base assignments over the years, Webb was the best.
Happy Holidays to all Webb personnel!! Chuck"
