USAF March 1961-Nov 1965,4 years and 9 months. Spent 3 years 8 months and 6 days in England at RAF Mildenhall and Rhine Main AFB Germany with the last 6 months at Travis AFB California. Jet over two engines Air Craft mechanic but worked on more piston engine air craft than jets. That time period was at the end of the piston engine air craft and the beginning of the jet engine air craft. Met my wife in England and still married for almost 52 years. E-4 when I got out but had time in grade for E-5 but they wouldn't give it to me unless I reenlisted and I wasn't going to do that so E-4 it was. I worked on C-47, C-54, C-118, C-121, (Super Connie), C-124, C-97, and I think one or two C-74's (DC-7),C-130, C-133, C-135, C-141.
