I started out in the EMS phase dock and when I got my assignment to Kunsan in June of 1981 I went to the flightline to get qualified prior to going the the KUN, and I was assigned this acft on day shift.

78-0090 was my first and only airframe as an ACC. Worked with Rick Enfield, Davis Bechtold and SSgt 'Smitty' Smith (can't for the life of me remember his first name). Merwin and Roach trained me up when I got to the line prior to ACC on 90. Those were great days working days or swings. Great group of maintainers. Still can remember riding around with Gary Maze trying to sleep one off begging him to make sure I didn't have spare out that day.
