Military Monday Memories: "K-9 Korea," early 1953

From my dad Fred Pape's military scrapbook:



Dad's 37th Bomb Squadron (and the entire 17th Bomb Wing or Group) moved from the K-1 base to K-9 in late December, 1952, when work on the runways at the latter was completed.




Another view of the 17th Bomb Wing headquarters pictured above is on the 17th Bomb Group website.


Another view of "The Castle" pictured above, quarters for senior officers at K-9, is on the 17th Bomb Group website.


Another view of the Officers Club pictured above is on the 17th Bomb Group website.
