Comments:
My hobby is collecting old coins and I have a rare Japanese coin and I was wondering if you could assist me. I found a picture of my coin on your website under the 1970's coins. It is the third one on the top. According to the decription it is the 5 (and a Y with 3 lines in it). I don't have a clue what its worth, but I got this coin from a missionary from our church when I was about 12 years old. I'll be 52 years old next week. Can you help?
Thanks, Keith Tolbert
Guestbook Administrator's Comment:
Keith - It sounds like you have a 5 yen coin. For more on this coin, visit http://susanwong.hubpages.com/hub/japanese-5-yen-coin-meaning-history-and-facts

1953 AACS. Tower operator
Comments:
Played on the un-defeated 1955 base football and the 1956 teams. Lived in tents with oil heating stoves. I remember the old wooden control tower with open stairs. Also heavy snow and winds during winter. I remember some teams mates from paper clippings and some fellow controllers. Retired from the FAA in 1986.
Looked at Misawa now and hard to believe it's the same base. When did they stop playing base football?

I recall my son being born here, all the cuties on the Hill, the football (CLAD, Base Team) and the chance to get into another culture. As I read on another post here, I came there as an 18 year old and left as a man ...(mostly) good memories ...

Comments:
Fifty years ago in 1962, I was 19 years old when I arrived in Misawa, Japan with my buddy, Randy Simpson, who was also from Memphis, TN. We bought Honda Motorcycles and took off to all of the small cities surrounding Misawa and quickly learn enough Japanese to have a ball. We were too young and too dumb to know better but that is where we grew up and I would still like to go back just for one more time. I don't believe that I will be able to make the second fifty year trip.

My father was stationed there in 1960's. I am going to send him this link. I have some old pictures that I have been going through and I did a google to find the airbase so I could document the picture. I have always been told that my brother was the first American baby born in Wakkanai. I have always wondered?

did anybody view the on HGTV Thursday night April 12th, House Hunting International. It was about a guy and his family moving to Misawa AB to take a civilian job. Very interesting program. Did not show much of base except for a house on the north side plus two houses outside the base. His family rented a house just outside the base near a busines that deals with farm equipment repair. Probably can view the program by going to www.hgtv.com

I met my wife in AP Alley. Her name was Yoko (Sumiko) and she was at the Florence.
I brought her home and marred her. We had 38 wonderful years together. We have two children and three grand children. Two of which she never met. I miss her very very much.
She passed away three years ago. I am heart broken in loosing her. I will meet her again in heaven.
This is for you my love. Love forever dear.
God Bless you all.
