Hello To All Found out some more info on Dad and was wondering if any one can tell me some info about La Junta Army Air Field in Colorado back in 1944 to 45 . Dad was stationed there from November 44 to November 45 as a Gunner Instructor and was discharged from Lowry Field , Colorado .I think he was with the 249 AAF Base Unit ? Pretty much have everything I need to complete dads military memory book except for where he went to school !! Thanks for any help you can give me in this last link Sincerely , Debbie ( tjcarp )
The Wikipedia page has some good info and mentions the 249th: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Junta_Municipal_Airport Also found this little tidbit: http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/la-junta-army-air-field-la-junta-colo-32-pages If there's a library in La Junta, they might have a copy? Steve
