well, I can’t help it

In ‘11 we visited the Museum of Naval Aviation in Pennsecola. I was anxious to visit the restaurant because it is the reconstructed Cubi Point officer’s club. It was our favorite and better than the Subic Club.

I was very surprised. It was not as I remembered at all. Nothing was familiar. I finally found our OICC plaque....... we built it, among all the hundreds of squadron plaques.

It dawned on me that I was old as hell. What they had reconstructed was the New O club. It was almost finished when we left in July ‘67. I was forgetting there had been 40 years in the meantime

On the night my son was born I spent several hours in the Cubi BOQ bar. It was closer to the hospital and the only thing open in the middle of the night

Prior to living on base at Subic, We lived in Manila. While waiting for housing, I flew back and forth every day.

It was great. We built all sorts of stuff and worked our butts off to get it done ASAP.
