Cav Country was always a bit ghetto, but that was kind of what made it cool. When I was out-processing in 2002 they had poured concrete pads and moved an old AH-1, UH-1, and OH-58C down to the corner of Chinook Ave and Black Sheep Run in the Brigade Area across from what used to be Son DZ. Wait, Is the DC-3 (C47) still at the entrance to CAAF. |
