they used brass ship models,

Ahhh! the days before Roy and his "modeling software" when we used
"modeling hardware" (:-)

When ships were made of wood and men were made of steel. [[you could tell
by the 'rust' stains on their skivvies]] sorry, still a little old salt
left in the veins...

It's amazing what you can do when money is no object...

Likewise. I was a CTMSN/CTM3 there. April 1963 - August 1964. Worked in
the receiver building. I have run into a lot of guys who were there -- all
later than this graybeard. I don't recognize your name, even with the extra
u's taken out.

Lets see... Basic in G.L., A school in Pensacola then I was there...mid 65
to Sept 66. Just "down the road"... CTM3 at the DF site. Names fail me
for 90% of the guys... Passed the test & Practical Factors for CTM2, but
wouldn't sign up for the full 6 active so I spent the last several monthc
fixing typewriters in the receiver bldg instead of going to the site at
Cleat AFB. Boo hoo (short timer from day one)
There were a couple of Air Force guys still there, but not for long.
Do you know about the web site?
http://www.usncva.org/
didn't see any recognizable names there.

I remember the typewriter shop at the receiver building. First door on the
right, inside the front door. I never worked there, but I often fetched a
shelf spare for an operator.

I know about the NCVA, but I've never been to the website. Going now. TKS
