Photos of the 2009 GEEIA-MDA-EI reunion can be see at PhotoBucket.

The control tower at Clark AFB, the Philippines about 1968.

This photo was taken at Clark AFB, in 1968.  The airmen were members of the 2876th GEEIA Squadron, and they are from left to right -- James Warner, Alex Mesevich, Buck Reynolds, and Bert Gwaltney.  They were preparing to install some weather station equipment in the control tower.

After checking the specs and documentation, the team in this photo was running diagnostics and checking the equipment after installation.

The two photos at right show what was left of an ILS course and directional antenna at Clark AFB after a F-104 over shot the runway.

This was about 1968-69 after a GEEIA team had installed the system

TACAN techs should recognize the 4-1000A diode from the klystron circuit on the shelf near my head.  I removed it from the trash at Donaldson AFB, South Carolina which the 2860th GEEIA Squadron helped to deactivate and close.
