These next set of pics are from postcards sold as a set. I found the whole thing on eBay .. about 50 sets of them being sold as a lot. Fortunately, the seller took photos of most of the cards, and showed each one on the sale page.

July 2011 - I got this note from Ron Arrington

I was stationed at Mcguire AFB from 1973-75 working as a Crew Chief on the C141. This is a clipping from the Mcguire Airtides, (base newspaper) and the comments made by the Wing Commander during Operation Nickel Grass. As a two striper back then, it did impress me a bit and I guess that explains why I still have it with my military papers.

Over the past few years I've noticed lots of books detailing local history of towns and many military bases around the country. These are available a many Costco stores (usually only for the surrounding area) and also all editions in the whole series seem to be available on Amazon.
