I spent nearly two years in San Bernadino, at Norton AFB, in the early 1980’s. Beautiful country up there in the mountains.
The air quality in general is so much better in recent years. I arrived in March, 1982, and couldn’t see any mountains. The air was opaque for weeks before it cleared enough for me to believe that anything was there.

I've said the same about my arrival at March AFB in August of 85. It was a month or so before I realized there were foothills just beyond the base.

My aunt worked at Norton. She was a civilian working for General Shultz. I think. I’m sure about his last name, not sure about the “general”.

I have been in southern California since 1962 and have seen many a smoggy day, but the air has definitely improved. There is an old joke that goes, What happens when the smog lifts over southern California?
