I was stationed at Tyndall in ‘57 when they introduced the F-104 Starfighter and B-58 Hustler.

Used to scubadive around the bridge between the base and Panama City and cooked the fish at a friend’s house who was on married status.

Tyndall is a great base. Right on the Redneck Riviera, with white sand beaches...and some work as well. Now I'm up in the Frozen Tundra, close to Milwaukee.
