of our 6x6. In the back-
ground is the hanger
used by the British.
F-86 Sabre jets on the
 flight line. I took this

splicing platform.
The base PX.
S/Sgt. James Pickens with a back
drop of icebergs and blue ocean.

from the base. The river from it
flowed along Narsarssuak
AFB.

base one early morning.
Pickens thinking about that good-
looking wife he has and he is stuck

1953, I and Don McCarron
received orders to report to
Camp-I at the Shoal Harbour
gravel pit, Newfoundland.
