7550 USS Essex St
N/A
Was stationed there from 5 June ‘69 thru 27 October’72. First In VT-3 then on Station in the link IFR simulator building. Was an AT. Great duty station with a lot of amenities. I remember seeing the Blue Angels there (north field) when they flew F-4’s. Pensacola beach the best kept secret, with Dirty Joe’s bar. Trader John’s on Palofox street was a famous aviator hangout. Two months after I arrived on station hurricane Camille hit Gulfport/Biloxi with a cat 5 storm. WELCOME TO FLORIDA! Ha!

1st duty station assigned to VT-3 Red Knights, 1964-1965 I was 'PSI' Pre School Indoctrination. Had the job of the tower logger, kept track of the A/C during their training flights (night). Gave taxi info to pilots but Capt Lacy Safety Officer caught me and put a stop to that. Almost all cadets were Vietnamese. After Jet School in Memphis was stationed at MCAS Yuma, Arizona.
1st duty station working of the old T-28 76 - 78. Loved it and the changes thru the years make it a great duty station. P-cola close, Beaches, Fishing, Babes and a great place to be stationed, Moved on to USS Nimitz F-14 VF-84 squadron and a bit of adjustment but a world tour was awesome. Go Navy and give em hell for those serving now. All us old Vets still think about the time we spent serving!
Was stationed there from 72 through 76. Crash crew . The old t28s, on the north field, and the H1s and 57s on the south.also worked with ODOS,And was a Wheels watch. Would like to check it out again sometime. Enjoyed my time there.
You could not ask for a better place to work. Commissary employee for 23 years, only 15 min to work! Lots of things available on Whiting Field, groceries, sundries, clothes, fun, hiking, boating and swimming, sports, food, barbershop. Best of all giant pool, wonderful gym, and basketball court all together. Family medicine and labs, and active duty dental and pharmacy. All in one spot. Great place! My husband was Coast Guard, Whiting Field is a mashup of multi-forces.
