I'm looking for Dave Rosen from Boston. He was on C Flight the same years I was there. I also listed a group of names in a previous message I entered. I would like to add John Durham (Defensice Halfback), Norm Bloom (Guard in Basketball & Linebacker in football) and Joe Madden, the greatest defensive end ever. John Durham, Norm Bloom and Joe Madden were all on the 1964 7-0-1 Football Championship team. I'm looking forward to the reunion in either St. Louis or San Antonio and am in the process of contacting other C-Flight personnel. I need the date and location when it is determined.

Hakata was one of my better assignments in Security Service. I waws on Charlie Flight most of my tour but went on days for the last few months. We had a great Crew on Charlie and I enjoyed working with all of them, I was block Controller and then Mission Supervisor, before going on days in Evaluation.

I hope we are kept posted regarding the reunion and I hope to see everyone who was at Hakata during my tenure there. Aside from special people to me, Tom Ulrich, Lew Kelly, Butter Johnson, Dan Hollingsworth, Eddie Fields, Norm Bloom, Sammy Wooten, Joe Madden, John Durham (He and I were the Defensive Backson the Championship Football Team), Major Barnes and his beautiful daughter Barbara), Smitty, Willy (Big Juice) Turner, Little Juice passed away recently, Red, (Big Daddy on the Football Team) John Paul Jones-Yes, John Paul Jones was in the Air Force, Dave Rosen from Boston, Georgie, and all the other great guys from all the flights. . . . and let's not forget the Army and Navy guys. I'm depressed I didn't keep names and addresses from those glorious days, but when you're young you just live for the moment. OH HOW I LOVED THE DRAGON BAR.
