Comments: I came across this site and noticed that my Grandpa's name was on the roster for the 7th Fighter Bomb Squadron.
He passed away in January of 2003. His stories of his time in the Air Force will live with us, his family, forever. If anyone has any other stories they can share, I'd love to hear them and pass them along to the family. I'm his youngest granddaughter.

Comments: My dad was James O Hart and was in this unit. Does anyone remember him? He was a jet mechanic and worked on the flight line and was injured when a bomber came back still carrying a bomb; upon landing, the bomb exploded and he was hit. I would like to hear from anyone who would remember him or anything about the incident (when it happened, where it happened, etc). Thank you so much.

Comments: 1st Lt. Dominique Kenneth Martin was my father and my name sake. He flew F84's with the 7th. On May 5th 1952 he was on a mission with two other F84's in the Huichon area when his plane was hit. He had to bail and was seen moving about on the ground by the other two pilots. That was the last anyone saw of him. I was born on September 8, 1952. If anyone has any information about him, or knew him please get in touch with me if possible. I would like to learn more about him and his career in the Air Force.

Comments: I am researching air combat in the Korean War by non-F-86 units. I am looking for information, first hand and otherwise on F-80 units air combat with MiGs, especially in the period November 1950 thru mid 1951. A few of these encounters are well known and written about in published US works but most are not, sometimes they are only barely mentioned at all in available US records. But some had surprising results from the Soviet perspective that I believe would make them very interesting if described in detail from both sides, so this is what I am trying to do. Any info relevant to this is most welcome.

I know that the 49th Wing has been around since WWII. They were based at
Misawa, Japan when my father was assigned to them, before their move to
K-2.
My father is unsure of the history before he joined up with them though.
The 49th Wing is still active at Holloman AFB in New Mexico. The 7th,
8th and 9th squadrons are also still active. The 7th being equipped
with F-117 Stealth Fighters. (One of which crashed at an airshow
recently).

Dear Don: I have read your messages on K2 in 51-52 period. I found
them very interesting since I arrived there March 53. Until now I
had no idea what life was like prior to then. I got there in the
49th Wing and we had the 84Gs. Your description of the flight
line, living quarters, and life in general was exactly as I found
it. All our airplanes were well maintained and the state of the
art for fighters at that time. We were over there when the war was
over on July 23,l953. We stayed on until we started rotating home
in December. Thank you for your most informative description what
it was like prior to our arrival.
Gratefully,
Roy L Henry

When we first got there in March 53, we were in the 7th Sqdn, 49th

the 58th FB Wing. At this time K2 had 2 groups in the 58th Wing.
6 Sqdns flew out of thisone base. I now realize what a busy place
this was. More next week. I'm going to the Rio Grande Valley this
