I was stationed at NKP from Oct 68 to Oct 69 with the 621st TCS. I was also one of the first at the show and I will never forget when Bob Hope came out and ask all of the Officers to move back so the Enlisted come get closer. He was the Greatest. Many great memories of the show and NKP. please feel free to Email me with any memories or pictures.
Thanks Bob for the Memories

I was assigned to the communications squadron. We got to the theater very early so we could see the show. It was great to see Mr. Hope. I still remember the show like it was 1968. I am proud to have been at NKP. Just saw the movie, "Flight of the Intruders." They showed the Sandys. Brought back many memories - Our bomb shelter outside our hootch collapsed during one rainy period.

I have many photos of this show in 1969. I was actually a "guest of honor" and attended the cast party and had a personal interview with Mr. Hope, Connie Stevens, and Theresa Graves. I was stationed at Ubon at this time (after serving at NKP from 07/67 to 07/69 with the 56th AMS) and was flown with the Bob Hope group from Ubon so I could be in attendance. GREAT MEMORIES.

I am looking to interview anyone who was a pilot, a member of the ground crew, wing duty officer, etc. at NKP during Bob Hope's tour. Thank you.
