Why I Want To Join The Air Force

I signed up for the Air Force after I got my draft notice. As I remember, you do not have long after the notice to join another branch. So, I went to the military recruitment building in Dayton; it had all of the recruiters at one place. The office was

I checked out the Air Force office, but no one was there! I asked about

Working at 907th GATR
My favorite was the 907th Radar Squadron. I was back working in electronics and surrounded by like-minded people. In many ways the barracks was like a college dorm, many of us were taking extension courses. On movie night we would go to the recreation room and watch a movie.

At just about this time the Copilot walks up to me and tells me that we are icing up, and wanted to know if it would be OK with me if we landed at Selfridge AFB. After getting over the shock that they would ask me, a lowly Airman, permission to land. I said sure, but radio ahead and tell them that we have classified equipment on board and to make provisions for its security. Nothing prepared me
