Hometown: Woonsocket RI Unit at Loring: 42 BW Maint and Comd Post First day at Loring: No on-base housing was available, so for two weeks we stayed at a motel (second floor)just outside the main gate. Disappointed when we saw the multi-units, having come from Homestead AFB FL. Most memorable experience: When our family went looking for a real Christmas tree on base. It was so cold !! We picked the first one we saw and got on home. Last Day at Loring: It was late fall in 1964. My spouse had just lost a newborn. I was headed for Goose AB Canada and my family would be staying in RI.
What did you do after Loring: Got out of SAC, went into MATS (MAC) Command Post at Goose AB Canada. Then after three years there we left in 1967 ( with a three-month daughter ) for Wright-Patterson AFB (AFLC/AMC). Retired there in 1974 and have been in Dayton OH ever since.
