| Robert Haines San Francisco, California | Do any of you remember Bob Haines, of the 146th and 195th Calif. A.N.G. when they were based at the Van Nuys Airport, back in the late-'40s through mid-'50s? He was my father. If so, I'd be pleased to hear from you. 08/30/2008 @ 19:54 [ref: 8395] |

| Dale Meyers Culver City, California | There is no museum at Channel Islands ANGB. There is an F86 on a stick at the gate. They do have a small base history office in the headquarters building with photographs, documents and awards. But it would be a stretch to call it a museum. There is another one of their planes is on display at The McClellan Museum in Sacramento. 04/30/2007 @ 11:07 [ref: 5884] |
| Lucy Silva Goleta Valley, California | I recenly visited Moffett Field, CA (outside of Sunnyvale, ca. The Moffett Field museum is FABULOUS and a real treat to see this museum. Master Chief Parsons (ret.) is docent and member of the Board of Directors. Chief Parson is retired Navy and has so much interest and love for this museum. If you visit this well run and beautifully equipped museum be sure and see Chief Parsons who is a real pleasure to meet. I served in VR-3 Moffett Field, CA 1951-1955 Airman Wave Flight Attendant. I would love to meet some of my buddies who served in this time and at Moffett field. lucivet@aol.com 04/29/2007 @ 18:53 [ref: 5882] |
| Lucy Silva Goleta Valley, California | I was stationed and flew out of Moffett Field, ca 1951-1955. I was a flight attendant. We flew R6D's around the World. Alot of Air Evac out of Korea. The museum at Moffett Field is Class IA, the most organized and beautiful museums in the USA. Fabulous docents volunteering in it. It is a real treat to visit this museum. Moffett Field is out of Sunnyvale and Mountain View which is only about five miles from San Jose California. I am trying to find anyone that served at Moffett Field in my squadron. VR3 and VR5 flew out of Moffett Field. In 1955 the squadron moved to New Jersey. Beautiful Moffett Field welcomes visitors to visit the museum. 04/29/2007 @ 18:01 [ref: 5880] |
| Charles Irvin Visalia, California | I didn't know that the 146th had a museum - do they??? Also, I heard recently that this base may be slated for closure (I didn't think that an Air Force unit on Navy land would last very long...): if so, and if there is a museum, what's going to happen to the planes? Where will the 146th go, not back to the crusty old hangars at Van Nuys, are they? Oh - the rating is there because you need to post one to post a message...while I love C-130's, this wasn't my unit. 05/22/2006 @ 08:26 [ref: 5016] |
