Haven't heard of John, but then again if I saw the fellow his face might ring a bell.

The original rock... that's about it. When I was out there my first commander was Col. Ingram. I would've followed that man into hell.

Our next commander, who's name I won't mention, I had little regard for. He was by the books fellow. Didn't inspire much confidence.

Here’s a funny story you’ll like.

When I worked out at KILO-1, I had a young (jeep) LT downstairs one day. Now, this being a Squadron Command Post, supposedly only the best and brightest manned the site. Well, and along with that, as the SCP, we also had those buried POP-UP antennas, to be used in case of a Nuke war.

Well, it was a really nice day, I was pulling FSC, and the SYN line rang. It was the LT from downstairs. He said, “So, hows it going? I said fine. He said, notice anything strange topside? I looked around and said, no. He said, look up toward the antenna field. Notice anything weird? I looked and said, no, why? He giggled and said WHEW! Well, I’m kinda new down here and was pushing all these buttons and thought I might have exploded the top off and raised the antenna. LMAO! I got the best laugh at him and all he could do was take it. The next day when he came up, we really got a good giggle out of it (without his commanders knowledge(probably wouldn’t have gone over too good LOL). For the rest of my time there, he and I worked together really great. Nice kid.
