Re: Food for thought 👍🏽👍🏽

Excellent idea, John. Maybe there’s a way for someone to create a searchable spreadsheet if some sort. I know the IUSSCAA data base contains member duty stations if they were listed in original application.

Here’s my list:

1973 - 1973 Boot Camp – San Diego
1973 - 1974 OT A-school - Key West
1974 - 1976 NAVFAC Bermuda
1976 - 1976 OT C-school – Key West
1976 - 1979 NAVFAC Keflavik
1979 - 1982 REDTRAFAC Ferndale
1982 - 1983 NAVFAC Barbers Point

Re: Food for thought 👍🏽👍🏽

Good morning Jim,
If someone could compile a list of all/most major duty stations and email it to me I could compile some sort of spread sheet. I'm glad to see that my thought has sparked a bit of interest.
