I think that Sqd. that had the E2C was VAW-12. They had the old Willy Fudds E1B when I was there. I was in Hanger LP-14 in the Paraloft just prior to Getting out. Went to Boot in Great Lakes. Then Jump School in Lakehurst NJ. Right to Norfolk for a few months then shipped out for parts unknown for 4 months. then to Little Creek, Then to El Centro, Then to Lakehurst, Then to Norfolk. THE END.
Welcome Aboard D.K.
Where were you assigned on NAS NORVA? Live on base or off?
