"I am researching my dad's WWII service. His name was Sgt. Joseph B. Brown and I believe he was an administrative technician. He was stationed in Big Spring, Texas from 1942-1945. In 1945 he was detached and sent overseas to the Philippines. Anyone with information can contact me at my email address jbrown337@verizon.net. "

"The picture of the T 38 in red white blue .1976 Bicentennial. The aircraft came out of golf flight. I was a sgt on the flightline and engine run man. 01950 missed a wing change due to hard landing in El Paso. Sat static display during open house and air show. I believe it crashed a short time later due to a hinge pin defaulted causing uncontrollable roll. Both pilots got out. I cherrish my time on the rock. Webb."

"Graduated in UPT Class 72-09 (First Time for 09). Great memories of Webb and my classmates. Glynda and I are trying to find our classmates for a get together. Retired from AF after 20-20 (twenty years & twenty seconds), in '91. Retired from Delta Air Lines in '04. Hanger 25 is doing a great job in keeping the memories of Webb AFB, I was there a couple of years ago and really like the stained glass window. Thanks for all your dedicated work."

"I am so glad the web-site is back in service. I cammot imagine the employee of the Hangar 25 thinking that this site needed to be taken down in interest of progress. The site was viewed by many and enjoyed by equal amounts. Thank you M+12 for having the knowledge to rebuild (from scratch) this very informative site. The Hangar 25 is under new management and growing. I was in civil service at Webb AFB in 1957 - 1959 in the medical area. I enjoyed meeting everyone who I came in contact with. Thanks again for this enjoyable part of history. Gloria Byrd McDonald "

"I came to Webb in Aug 1955 after graduating from Instructor pilot school at Craig AFB as a 2/Lt T-33 Instructor Pilot. I stayed until late 1958. My first two students in 1955 were Lts. Noble and Rodgers (see photo). My first two children were born on Webb AFB. My first combat assignment was with the Air Commandos (May-Oct 1963 Vietnam) flying a T-28D armed with guns, rockets, and napalm or bombs."

"I was stationed at Webb AFB from 1967-1969 when I returned from a tour in Vietnam. I was the Flight Chief for Hotel Flight of 12 T-38's. My career field was aircraft maintenance. I was SSGT and when a MSGT HOBBS returned from Vietnam and took over Hotel Flight, I was asked to fill in as the squadron 1st Sergeant. I filled this position until a 1st SGT transferred in. In late 68 and early 69, I became a Flight Engineer or as we were called, FLYING SERGEANT's who had the great job of checking out all the aircraft coming out of PE or replacement of flight control item that required a Flight Test. I meet my wife Lucie Vallieres and we were married at the Base Chapel in March 1969. Later that year I went to Flight Engineer school and flew support flight from Travis AFB to Vietnam in C-141 and later in C-5A. After the war ended I finished my career as 1SGT and C-5A Flight Instruction at Altus AFB, OK. It all started at Webb AFB. I was raised in Midland,Texas. My wife and I have been married 45 years and retired to The Villages in Florida. "

" I was stationed at Webb AFB for my whole tour in the Air Force. I worked in Bravo flight on T-37 aircraft From March 1973 till November 1976. I had a great time at Webb but did not get to see much of the world. However some of my friends went to Viet Nam and did not come back. I feel very fortunate that I did not go Viet Nam but I lost good friends to that war."

"I was an air traffic controller stationed at Webb AFB 1975-76 and as others served under CMSgt John Workman. First memory - after coming back to the states after being gone for 5 years (Thailand, then Germany), my credit history was non-existent. The utility companies, and landlord all wanted up-front money. When I told them I was an airman at Webb, they asked where and I said 2050 Comm. Sq. "Oh, you work for Sgt. Workman?" "Yes." "Well, then, there is no deposit." I later found out his reputation around town was such, he would personally vouch for his team. While he could chew butt with the best of them, I knew he always had my back. One of the finest men I ever served under/with."

"My family transferred to Big Spring in 1969 from Biloxi. I grew up on Carleton Dr., just south of the base. went to Christian Day, Jack and Jill, Marcy, Goliad, Runnels, then graduated in1984. my dad got out after he got back from Nam in 1971, I believe. went to work for Drinkard Electric, then the V A. his name was Sandy also. when I was a little kid, I'll never forget getting to go down to my dad's shop on the flight line and hanging out with him and his friends . I remember Mr. Floyd Moss, Mr Salmon. can't remember too many though. Good times. It will always be apart of me. mashed potatoes at the Runway Inn. man, they were something. Transferring to West Texas was how a lot of my old friends got to town. I know my dad was stationed in Phan Rang in Nam. also did time in Da Nang. he retired from the V A out of Gainsville Fla in 95. talk to him all the time. I'm going to give him this site. I know he'll be interested. Cool place to read about the old days. "
