Comments: I was the only combat pilot assigned to the 58th Ftr. Bmr. Grp. that got a dog on take-off. It twisted my nose gear at about a 90 degree angle, but managed to land safely and hold the nose off

Pilot Training Class 52-A USAF

PAUL HALLER Email address wrote:

Do you have any information relating to  a reunion of any of these
Korean War Era entities?

Flying school class 53-A

506th Strategic Fighter Wing
462  Strategic Fighter Squadron

Or a way I might contact members of those organizations? I served in
all three.

Class 53A was a pilot training class.  I was part of it in Columbus
Mississippi.   It started in January 1952 and ended  in February 1953.
(the "A" designation means it was the first class to graduate in '53) 

The 462nd Strategic Fighter Squadron  was part of the 506th Strategic
Fighter  Wing which was a part of the Strategic Air Command.

The wing was equipped with F-84G aircraft until the end of 1955 when it
became the first wing to receive the swept wing F-84F's.   All of the
squadron aircraft were capable of carrying nuclear weapons.   


The 506th was stationed at Dow Air Force Base in Bangor Maine till lthe
beginning of 1955 when the whole wing was transferred to Tinker Air
Force Base in Oklahoma.  We went on rotational  temporary duty (3 mos)
to Eilson Air  Force base in Alaska.   

Thanks

Just surfing the WEB and came upon your page./thank you for your effort.

It was a very unglamorous was and gets very recognition today.  Seems
that only the last war fought is remembered.

I flew with the 49th Fighter Wing at Taegu, Korea in l953.  Was there
when the war was over.  My flying class of 52G has an association that
meets every 2 years.  We have over 200 members that usually attend.
Randy Presley, Mt Pleasant , /txis our operations officer and has a
wealth of information in case you are interested.  His number is :

Michael J. Adams - 80FBS

Ted:
Thanks for the e-mail. Randy Pressley is our contact so I don't have any

As far as I can determine Michael J. Adams was a member of 52G class and
was also a member of the 80th FBS where he flew 49 combat missions in
Korea.

He was later killed during the X-15 test flight program on November 15,
1967. He was one of the early astronauts because he had flown to an
altitude of more than 50 miles above the earth's surface( an Air Force
Requirement to be awarded Astronaut Wings)
