	"I was station at Webb AFB., and remembeer the most strange thing there. On the flight line at the resturant they had a tree. Ever years bugs would eat the leaves and the tree would bounce back. I work at Stand-board. It was there that my my bosses {officers} evaluated IP pilots who trained other plots. Before I left I had gone to Dallas for my flight back to Ga. There I ran in a Lt Veigh who was now flying for Eastern Airlines. I remember my Wing Command a Colonel Collins. I had baby set for him in Nagoya (Komaki Airdrome} in 1948/49. He was Capt then and now was my Wing Commander. He had come a long ways so had I. I retired at Homestead AFB in 1968. Went back to school and taught 8th Grade Ga History and retired in 1994 with 25 yeras service in the field of Education. I enjoy revisting Webb via internet."

	"The sight of hangar 25 picture brought back many memories of Pyote Texas where I took B-29 training in 1943. I believe the hangars there were of similar construction. I visited there in 1845 and got some pictures of the skeletons still standing Ford"

	"I was stationed at Webb Air Force base for just a short time from August to November 1957. I had just returned from an overseas assignment and was serving out my last 90 plus days at Webb. I worked in an area that did the daily scheduling of training aircraft for the morning and afternoon flight schedules. We also scheduled aircraft for various unscheduled maintenance at the different maintenance shops. So didn't get a chance to meet too many people. I really enjoyed my last days in the Air Force and I have had the chance recently to go back to Big Spring, TX. and also tour the Hangar 25 Air Museum. If you get the chance to pass through that way, you should visit the old base. The people there have really worked hard to create a very nice museum and it's well worth your visit. Lots of neat memorabilla and some beautiful aircraft. If anyone that reads this comment and was at Webb AFB at the same time, please email me. Thanks S/SGT Bill Evans."

	"I am trying to locate any information about someone who might have been stationed at webb air force base in 1966. I was a baby boy given up by a woman named Jackie Phillips. I am assuming she was maybe a teenager. I was born in 1966 and its possible that her family was stationed at webb at the time. There is no school records at the big spring high school or any marriage records on Jackie from the 50's to the 70's but since webb was a transitional place for alot of airmen its possible her family was stationed there and she gave birth and gave up the baby and they moved. Phillips was her maiden name and I estimate that she could have been between 15-19 years old so that would make her parents who would have been stationed there about 35-60 years old in 1966. I am basically just at a dead end and thought about webb being an active base during that time. I need to get medical information from this birth mom because I have now had a medical crisis and the dr's have told me it is genetic and any information that I could provide will greatly assist them in treating me. Thanks Charles Hudson (I was born December 1966 in big spring at medical arts hospital to Jackie Phillips) "

	"An interesting web site. I haven't been back to Big Spring since graduation from UPT in class 64-A. All you need to complete the memories would be pictures of the old student VOQ, horny-toads, tarantulas, and rattle snakes."

	"I was surprised to find this wonderful site. I was stationed at Webb from Jan. 1969 to the fall of 1970. I made buck Sergeant there. I worked in the CBPO under Major Ruric H. Wester. I have very fond memories of Webb. It was my 1st duty station from Keesler AFB Training School. Hope to hear from other former airman. "

	"Webb was my first assignment after tech. school at Amarillo. Arrived in Jan 1966 & remained until Aug 1970. i worked in hanger T-75, the T-38 phase dock. The time spent at Webb we the most rewarding years in the USAF. I only wish I had kept up with all my "buddies" after the years. Hope to attend the reunion."

	"This is my third and last post tonight. I have attached a photo of a business card from one of the band members that played at The Blue Note. I imagine there are probably many of you Webb AFB veterans that remember The Blue Note. I do remember I was never carded. Also, please consider coming to the September 2008 Reunion. Since it has been so long, this may well be one of the last reunions they have. The details are on this web site."

	"This is my second post and attached is a photo of one of our F102A's on the ATC flight line during a base open house in 1962. Just a little side note, I bought a model of a F102 and had it assembled with the exact decals and numbers of the one in this photo. It kind of makes my desk look a kid uses it but it brings back good memories for me."

	"I was stationed at Webb AFB with the 331st FIS from January 1961 thru October 1962, 2 of the most memorable years of my Air Force experience. I will never forget Webb AFB and the friendly town of Big Spring, Texas. While I was at Webb I worked part time at the Wagon Wheel restaurant which was just outside of our base. I also spent many a Friday and Saturday nights at our favorite watering hole, The Blue Note. I first signed this guest book in April 2007 but since then I have gone thru my memorabilia, mostly for nostalgia and to reminesce, but also to see what I could find that might be fun to put on this guest book. I found several items but I believe this site only allows 1 photo upload per 'sign-in' so I will post a couple more after this one. The first one is a scanned picture of a patch for the 331st. I hope it brings back a few memories to you like it did me."
