Ronald's Story
Life
E3-- 2022-1 AACS TOWER/GCA Arrived Feb.1957 straight from
Tech. school at Keesler, AFB> till discharge Aug 1960. Base
closed shortly thereafter. Still believe they kept it open, just to
keep me there. Joined the USAF to see the world, and never
got over 750 miles from home in south Texas. Still had a great
time, and ended with a great career with the FAA.
Retired air traffic controller, after 4 years in the USAF (Tower
controller) and 27 year with the FAA at the Atlanta Enroute
control center. In the process of moving to North Georgia.
(8 miles east of Dahlonaga, Ga. Still miss south Texas fishing
in Baffin Bay and eating at Kings INN.

FEB.2005 Just finished new home(Aug 2004) near Dahlonega, Ga. Now back to going to Destin,Fl. and some saltwater fishing. Also need to get to work on rebuilding Corvair
convert. and go to some car shows. Would like to hear from
any old friends. Update June 2011: Salt water fishing now history. Sold boat- to far to coast and
fishing limits to restrictive. + gas to high.
Live only 5 miles from lake Lanier, northeast of Atlanta. Ocean stripe bass stocked in lake and has
become quite a fishery. Still messing with Corvairs. Wanting to visit Bishop + Kingsville, eat at Kings INN,
