  Hi Barry. I was there the same time , we had 43 aircraft and only 21 was operational the the rest was lined up in the bone yard with no engines or parts. I was in power plants at the time and we had so many students no one knew what was going on. But it was a great sqd and great crew.

  I was a Pacemaker from May 1973 to Dec 1976, PN2, mostly worked the FRAMP office.  Fresh out of A School I arrived to an office as the 5th personnelman assigned to an office that had 3 desks and 2 typewriters.  I would muster in the AM and was regularly sent home by 10AM.  I was newly married and after a couple months of me getting home so early doubted that I was actually in the Navy.  This was just at the end of the Vietnam War and we were way overmanned.  I didn't pull any extra duty for almost 2 years, but by the time I finished my tour we were undermanned.

  I was at VF-121 from Jun 1972 to Mar 1975.  I was in Personnel as well as ESO.  It was a great command and a great bunch of guys and gals.

  This was my last Command. I checked in Oct, 1979 and retired the same Date the Trans Det. did 31 May, 1981. When I checked in I was assigned as the Safety PO for the Squadron and as time passed I became the Command Career Councilor, LIne PO and any thing else they needed until the last day. It was a great ride.
