Comments: Looking to hear from anyone who served at the Goose during 1952
to 1953. My buddies John Dirugeris, Jerry Lala and Ross
appropriated an aluminum canoe from a Rescue Shack down buy
the river and took a ride. Worst day of my life. The four of us
almost drowned. Could not sit down because the water temp burned
our butts ergo we almost turned over four times trying to maintain
our balance while paddling. Along came some Canadian guys who
tried to toe us but burned out their motor. Needless we all did make
it back to shore and never caught any flack for jackin the canoe.

Comments: I was in the 1932 AACS Sq at Goose Bay from Nov. 1957 to Nov 1958 as a Teletype Operator. I remember some of the long TT Tapes that were supply requests and would run thru the transmitter for hours and hopefully would not rip.(remember the splicing gadget for a torn tape) Went on to Dover AFB and discharged in June 61. Started working for the Massachusetts State Police in 1963 as a Dispatcher (Radio and Teletype Oper) and retired in 1999 as supervisor for central part of the state. The USAF was a great experience.
