ANTHONY J SPATAFORE CT2 - CT1 U. S. NAVAL RADIO STATION WINTER HARBOR, MAINE
|
I arrived at the NAVRADSTA the end of September 1955.
The station is located in the Acadia National park. After checking in and getting orientated, I was assigned to Corea, Maine. This is a small sub-station, about 12 miles from the main base, where we had the HFDF operations. Transportation was via a 'carryall'. Meals were sent over from the main base in chow buckets for the day watch. Must say I enjoyed my two years at Winter Harbor. Had to travel a bit to go anywhere, but the poeple were great. They didn't have much, but they made you welcome. |
