I came here after retiring from the Navy in 1992........
Thanks Roy

I've only been to MAFB once, and that was after I Retired when I was traveling from Glasgow to Ft. Harrison on a Sunday for my job.

I followed the wife to her "hometown" (she grew up on a Ranch) of Terry and landed my dream job, I'm the Veteran Service Officer for the State, The American Legion and the VFW.

I found this site after I started trying to breath some life into an old pickup from her family's ranch... you know the type, "1 owner, 86,xxx miles, ran when parked, needs minor work...."




The sprayer is not included, but I have to try to find the tailgate and hopefully the plow... It's been sitting in Grandpa's yard (the original homestead for the ranch) for years and even though I'm a bowtie guy, I always loved the old Ford Highboys...

Cheers,
Oly
