I was born in Boston, but spent grades 8-12 in New Brunswick and went to college there. I still have family in Houlton, Island Falls and Caribou.
My dau. and hubby were stationed at BNAS.
The last year they were there, the base was busy building all new housing, etc.
Not long after, they closed the base. Yep. Wonder who ended up benefit ting from all that gov’t spending?
Houlton and Caribou - brrr ;o) .
Have you seen the documentary done on Houlton a few years ago? It was fascinating! Absolutely incredible, those people! Good stock up there! (Very little liberal stock, I'm thinking. They just aren't the hardy, stalwart kind of folk)
