Comments: On orders (1955) was assigned to the 3rd Communications Squadron at Elmendorf, AK, but on arrival, changed to 6981st RSM as part of USAF Security Service (now the 25th AF). Looking for anyone who served 1955 thru 1956 period. Final assignment was a Detachment 3 at Pt. Barrow, AK (It became Detachment 4 during 1956) with a total of 25 men.
