As a Sailor, I was a plankowner to the E-6B taking the ABNCP mission and standing up the STRATCOM WING 1 maintenance det, later I flew a freakn lot of missions out of Offutt when I was assigned back to the Iron Man SQDN at Tinker.
When I got my orders for Offutt AFB in 1975, other airmen thought I was going to the gallows. "Who did you piss off?" It was FANTASTIC! I never had so much fun!!
The EC-135 that's on display at Kenny Gate is not an EC-135C LOOKING GLASS, instead, it's an EC-135A, PACCS: Post Attack Command and Control System aircraft. This was part of an airborne relay network that hooked into LOOKING GLASS, and the Underground Command Center, that is deep under Building 500.
@@thecrippledrummer it means that Offutt AFB is a horrible assignment not matter what your AFSC is. To many "Chiefs and not enough Indians". Everyone is on a power trip here. Now the area is amazing! The weather is great, all four seasons. Plenty to do within the local area. It's just horrible working here.
