I stumbled on this site by accident (Hakata search). I'm going to try and find some service mementos and try to give you some names and happenings. I worked in the traffic analysis shop and played on the football team. I was married to my first wife at the time. Her name was Lisa. 40 years is a long time.

Just surfing and came across this site via a link from the 6994th site. I served at Misawa as a 292 from 9/63 to 7/65 and then at Trabzon from 7/65 to 8/66. Looking for Ron Way who I went to tech school with at Keesler. If anyone is in contact with him, would appreciate it if you would pass on my email address to him.

I was a Korean Linguist and 98C (AF 202) assigned to the US Army Security Agency Field Station Hakata from July 1969 until March 1972 when it was closing down. My wife and I enjoyed the base very much and spent a lot of time exploring Fukuoka and the surrounding country side. I had a sail boat that we kept in the base marina and sailed around the bay and even around Shiganashima. Our first child was born there in the base hospital at Itazuke, one of the last to do so before they closed the hospital. Great fun for those years there. Best regards to all Hakata veterans and their families.

I worked with A flight but lived in the barracks next to the Service Club. Played football and worked with the motorcycle club. My roomy was one of the chaplin's assistants, Charlie DeGuilio(deceased). Lots of fond memories of Hakata.
