Fuji in the background much bigger than life. I was used to seeing it visually from 1950 to 52. I was attached to the 22nd TCS.

On a clear day Mt Fuji would be seen in the far distance, not so prominent. Great picture!<br />I was there 56-58.C124s with 374th troop carrier group,374thtroop carrier wing,315th air division.<br />Tachi West.<br />mass computers were not even dreamed of then.<br />A good transistor radio was the best electronic device<br />and the Japanese made good ones cheap.<br />Cheers to my AF brothers<br />RodgerAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14687762322702708654noreply@blogger.com
