 Aboard the USNS Blatchford 2 days out of Bremerhaven 3/6/53 |
 Ed Lankford at the entrance to NSGD Operations Bldg |
 L.A. Tucker. Note antenna pole to the left of building. This was one of many supporting the 9 rhombic antennas we put up. (I climbed them all and painted my initials on the top rain cover!) |
 This is me on one of the antenna poles. |
 This will give you some idea of the size and amount of coaxial cable we buried to tie the antennas to the SP-600's |
 Harry Bertram CTSN knew him since CT school. Came over with me. Lived off Hershey bars on the ship. Never went to the galley that I knew of. |

 Eddie Bartush CT2 Admin Office. The only guy I ever saw who brushed his teeth with regular soap! |
 According to history, this is where it all started. The clock tower of the Admin Bldg |
 "Big" John Marshall. CT school and came over with us. Size 14 shoes he had to order special. Married the base librarian, Annagret. |
