Hello Norman:
Glad to hear that you and your family are safe from hurricane Charlie.
Sadly, I hear that some others did not fair as well. I remember being on
deployment in the late 1960s near Eglin AFB at Hurlbert Field. We were down
there for an annual practice launch of a Bomarc. A hurricane rolled through
with considerable damage from Ft Walton Beach to New Orleans! Pretty scary
stuff for a Canadian but we didn't mind too much as we were stranded for a
time in the NCO's Mess! Lots of good food and refreshments were on hand.
Quite an experience!
Anyway, I hope it doesn't take too long for everyone to recover from
this one!
Take care:
Ed
