Here is a photo I took (1964) of former Harmon AFB. Unfortunatly the entire area has been redeveloped now and is erased from existance. It was located less than a mile to the NW of NAS Agana. According to www.pacificwrecks.com it was originally a B-29 Depot and Maintenence base. Note the wierd cloud formation...like an inverted coffee cup.

Thanks aj2, I was stationed at NAS Agana with VQ-1 72-75, really had a good time on the island, would love to go back again, jdvoss I remember driving up that hill many a time going by Harmon field, the roads would get slick as snot when it rained and you would literally spin your wheels coming up that hill :wink:
