Worldwide Deployable
N.A.D.G.E. (NATO Air Defense Ground Element)
Cold War Warrior
Amazing that after over 20 years how easily I remember it.

The Bad Munder Radar Site (where 609th was located when not deployed for NATO war games-yep, we slept in tents, played the games, in the mud, snow, or heat depending upon what time of the year) does not exist anymore.
Hessisch-Oldendorf Air Station (where we, 619th & 629th TCFs billeted), and the 600th CSS was located does not exist.

We were a GSU and the East Germany border was only about 60 miles due east of Bad Munder.

Most interesting memory: Seeing 2 MIGs do a fly over our site, I wasn't smiling for their cameras. Reds caught the Allies with their 'pants down' that day, they were in & out of West Germany air space within 3 minutes.

Most unforgettable memory: One of the plane crashes (this one an F-4) I was deployed to; for setting up secure communictions. Story goes that the pilots had two choices: 1) Eject out of the barely-controllable aircraft and live. 2) Fight the controls of that S.O.B. all the way down. When control was lost, the plane was going down, heading for a civilian elementary school. They were able to get it 'turned' to go down into a nearby forest ~1000 yds from the school...they went with it.

The Cold War has turned into a distant memory for many in the U.S., and some news pundits even question whether the 40 year effort meant anything.

For those two pilots and everyone who served to keep Europe and the World free from Soviet aggression...damn straight...we made a difference...it was worth it.
Sorry about being long-winded. I salute all my brothers & sisters who in the past and present have worn the uniform of the United States military.

1776 - 2007: 231 years and countin'
My dad was stationed at Hahn during the same time. He had been in since '75 and was a Crew Chief. Started on F-4s, went to '16s and finished on T-37s in Columbus. I remember when that crash happened. A similar crash happened not far from Hahn. My dad was on the crash recovery team at the time and had some nasty stories.

Sometimes I do miss the days when I knew going to work every day that the mission was simply to assure the destruction of millions of commie bastages.
I remind them, often, of how different times are now. Some listen, they are usually the ones who stay.

I was just reading back through this today. I stated it before, but never listed the places I've been.

Apr 93- Apr 94, Presidio of Monterey, Tech school
Apr-Sep 94, Goodfellow AFB, TX, Tech School
Sep 94-Sep 96, Fort Meade, MD
Sep 96 - Nov 96, Fairchild AFB, WA, Survival School
Nov 96 - Jan 99, RAF Mildenhall, UK
Jan 99 - Nov 99, DC, Tech School
Nov 99 - Nov 06, RAF Mildenhall, UK
Nov 06 - Present, Fort Meade, MD

Lots of time spent at NSA, Souda Bay, Crete
PSAB, Saudi Arabia (Southern Watch)
Operation Allied Force
Incirlik, Turkey (Northern Watch)
Al Udeid AB, Qatar (OIF/OEF)
Balad AB, Iraq

Will likely see some more deployment time before I retire since my staff job assignment expires in a little over a year. I used to count the total number of days I had spent on the road, then it got to be too much.

My plan used to be stay till 20, then find a new job. Now, I'll stay in as long as they keep promoting me, or until I don't have fun anymore. I can tell you, I am tired of flying a desk......
