I seem to recall he wore his .45 in a cross-draw position, but don't quote me. However, he was from Texas.

Comments: Arrived Lackland 10 May 1950, waited ten days while enough enlistees arrived to compose a Flight. DI was SSgt Jude and assistant was PFC Woods, SIR! He could sail a blue P___pot helmet 75 yards and hit his target everytime. Was on the 2nd floor open bay of Barracks T-1428, fourth bunk, top berth, left side. Remember we had unfortunate circumstance of one of our members drowning in one of the base pools as he apparantly either sleepwalked or stepped into the water while pulling night time guard duty... as we learned our "Halt, who goes there?" routine. Don't remember the name but remembeer the circumstance well. Some names are Linus D. Bonham from Arkansas, Russell Don Kelly from Arkansas (heard years later that he was a county sheriff for many years back in the Ozarks) James Smith from New York..my squad leader. Junior Porch from Indiana, Polzin, Bradshaw, Vanepps, and a couple with Military High School training and because of them helping us; we won the BMT honor flight several times for Sergeant Jude and PFC Woods, SIR! Got a lot of old pics and some old yellow memographed orders with all the Flights names. We all were supposed to go to tech schools from BMT, but when the Korean conflict began we were nearing the end of our training and ALL were shipped out to wherever we were "needed" most.... really was looking forward to a Control Tower Job but instead went straight to Weaver, South Dakota on a troop train to walk point guard around B-29s and B-36s in piles and piles of snow on Rapid City AFB (Renamed Ellsworth in 1953). Hey, anyone remember any of these names, or wanna swap lies and war stories gimme a holler.

Randolph AFB

I think a reference to the U.S. Airforce Training Command should be
included.
In my case, the B-29 combat crew training conducted at Randolph AFB,
Texas,1950-53. This was a high prority exercise to reactivate AF
Reserve personnel and reclaim the WW2 B-29's from their desert storage
places.
As is well known, the B-29 bombardment of North Korea was vital
in the early stages of that "police action". Randolph AFB was converted
from T-6 pilot training very quickly to accomodate the B-29's, aircrews
and maintenance personnel.
At it's peak, around 80 B-29's were flying daily training missions to
qualify flight crews for deployment in overseas action. Aircraft
maintenance was a key element in the success of the program. The 29 was
a maintenance intensive aircraft, which I can attest to as a crew chief
during that period. It took a lot of effort from our ground crews to
keep those big guys in the air.
It should also be noted that many aircrews did not return, especially
after the Russian MIG,s entered the airwar. There are numerous
publications on the B-29 efforts in Korea, but not much is written about
the guy's in greasy fatigues. Thanks for listening.
Specifically the 3510 and 3512 Maintenance Squadrons. I was the Crew
Chief of B29, AF Serial No. 4486394, tail No.10, 3510 Maint. Sq. Would
like to know the final disposition of those B29's. The CAF B29, "FIFI
reclaimed from desert storage, was tail No. 35 at Randolph during that period.

I am a member of the Korean War Veterans Association and was just
surfing to see if there was anything new on the KWVA.org site. Then I
followed the link over to see if this site had changed. I am still
searching for AACS friends that also served during the 1951 to 1954 era.
I went through basic with the 3744th, flight 191, then was sent to
Carswell AFB, Fort Worth, TX with the old 1064th Communications Group.
Then they changed our name to the 2048th AACS Squadron. In 1953 I was
transferred to the 2045th at Andrews, and then on to the 244th AACS
Squadron at the Pentagon. My entire service life was spent in what was
called teletype relay control switching centers. My fondest memories
are with friends at Carswell, so if you want to add anything to my guest
registration it would be looking for friends from the 2048th.
Best Wishes,
Joan McKinney
