Bill Crawford and H-19 53-4410









Hi guys
Here's a few more pictures from the old days.This old H-19 & I crossed paths many times in many places. We first met in the Philippines in 1959 in the photo mapping outfit. The picture on the LST was at Naha port Okinawa in early 1960. That's a big yellow lemon painted on the nose, it says I AM AHH LEMON. The shadow on the LST is from my ship.The pic in front of the hanger is at Showa IRAN depot in Japan, we picked it up sometime in 1960 & took it back to Misawa.The pic in the school yard was somewhere south of Misawa after a tidal wave hit Japan in 1960. The pic of Me & Bob Mills was at Tachikawa Japan sometime between 1963 & 1965. When I went to the jungle survival school in January 1967 I was picked up by Curley Killough in none other that 53-4410. That was the last time I ever saw the old girl, right back where we first met eight years earlier.
