Customer Reviews
I grew up on SAC bases beginning in1952-65) with the B-36D (Travis AFB) and progressing through the B-47E (MacDill AFB), & B-52G (Seymour-Johnson AFB & Eglin AFB)and then spent my own 24 plus year AF career in SAC in ICBMS (Minot AFB & Grand Forks AFB). Great history of a bygone era that brings back memories and helps me understand some of the things my Dad had to deal with.
