  • http://www.keesler.af.mil/ Right side of page has nice base map and base phone listing.
  • In the right side of the block on the back bay side right of the runway used to be filled with houses. Katrina changed that forever.
  • Can`t find Tyre-House(BOQ)any more, where I had lived for 4 months in 1970 during an ew training for Krauts ... Wrecked by Katrina?
