Stallins and flew fighters with the 44th at Clark between fall '51 and summer '53, I think. I am trying to meet people who either knew or flew with my dad then, or can tell me more about the aircraft that were available at Clark during those years. I have many clean color photos of various F80s and one photo of what appears to be a parking field full of P-51s. However, I have no way of knowing whether my various photos all represent the same time period. Please reply to curtisstallins@yahoo.com if you are interested in speaking with me some time about your recollections of Clark; how I might meet someone who knew or flew with my dad; what kinds of aircraft were flown then; etc. Thank you for any help you can offer, Curtis Stallins Keywords: Raymond E.
