Asmara Ethiopia Microwave

Asmara, Ethiopia - Yokosuka Microwave Site:

"I left Yokosuka in January of 1971 for 30 days leave at home with my family, which was Little Rock, Arkansas at the time. Next stop was 5 days in Norfolk then on to Asmara, Ethiopia.

My first layover was in Athens, Greece. We were only supposed to be there for a few hours but that changed when the health officials found out that it had only been 24 hours since I had received my cholera shot and it takes 4 days to incubate... "

Kisarazu

Yokosuka Microwave Site:

"I remember the guy that I relieved at Kisarazu... or rather I remember what he looked like. He and I graduated from Microwave 'C' school together. When we arrived at Yokosuka he was reassigned to Atsugi where he remained for two years. The one constant of his behavior was that he smoked a pipe. "
