and it looks like they have some appreciation of their military

Michael is a retired USAF Master Sergeant who knows Roy Gertig, N0RG,
personally, and heard about our efforts in recovering K0AIR. He lives
very near Middletown, PA, the site of the former Olmstead AFB (so he's
probably the closest thing to a base legacy, anyway).

Jackie operated at the USCG station W2AIR, and wanted an AIR callsign, so
K4AIR was a reasonable choice. Jackie was pleased to find out that it
was the former Langley AFB call.

Four down, 6 to go!
