  • Assigned to NAS Cecil Field from 78-80, worked the "Fuel Farm and O2N2 (Lox Plant) Fuel checker both NS and EW sides.

  • I'll do that thanks Ron
  • Donald, Go on line and search "Naval Air Station Cecil Field patch" you should be able to find a patch for around $5.00 I just did. These computer thing a ma jigs are something else.
  • Donald, I would guess getting a Cecil Field patch might be hard to come by since the base closed down. I didn't look real hard and settled for a picture.
  • Does anyone know how to get the patch of Cecil Field.
  • Arrived Cecil November 1963 as an SA fresh out of Boot Camp Great Lakes assigned to GMTO because I could type. Spent a year at Cecil before picking up my first Tin Can out of Mayport.
  • I was a member of VA-172 A-4C Skyhawk squadron from June 1966 to October 1, 1969. We were home ported at NAS Cecil Field.

VS-31 NAS Cecil Fld.

Seems a lifetime ago. Barracks, chow hall, hangar on the flight line. Hotter than blue blazes in summer. Dropping torps south of Fort Jefferson, stopping at NAS Key West for fuel. Watching low level fuel light come on everytime pilot hit the brakes landing at Cecil. Blown tires, etc... I remember it all.
