[[Illynoys]] and Missouri,MO) in 1963.ARADCOM,Army Air Defense
Command,we had Nuke Warheads on them Missiles) between Scott Air Force
Base,Illynoys and SL 60 near Pacific,MO.I wasen't issued a Secret
Clearance thingy/card.(some thingys I will not tell,even to this day)

who lived in Kirkwood,Missouri and when (Kirkwood is a Southwest suburb
of St.Louis,right on down South on Big Bend Blvd)

When I Joined the U.S.Army in October 1962,I told the recuiting Seargent
(Seargent White) at the U.S.Army Recruting Office that used to be on
Capitol Street in beautifull down town Jackson,,,,, I want to be in the
St.Louis area.I remember the day I finished boot camp at Fort
Gordon,Georgia,some of them guys said,You are going to Scott Air Force
Base,Illinois?
