I AM SENDING THIS TO MULTIPLE ADDRESSES TO PRECLUDE INDIVIDUAL REPORTS. I AM 85 AND THIS IS NOT SHOUTING, I USE CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE OF FAILING EYE SIGHT. THIS IS WHAT I REMEMBER ABOUT THULE/NORD IN THE EARLY 50’S. FACT OR FICTION! I WAS IN THE 435 TH TROOP CARRIER WING STATIONED AT MIAMI FL. FLYING C-119 AIRCRAFT AS AIRCRAFT COMMANDER. I SPENT MOST OF THREE YEARS IN SIX WEEK TOURS IN EITHER THULE OR ALASKA.
SO MUCH FOR BEING STATIONED IN SUNNY FLORIDA. THIS IS THE WAY I REMEMBER THOSE DAYS. THEY MAY BE ALTERED BY AGE. MY FIRST TRIP TO THULE WAS IN THE SPRING OF 1951, APRIL OR MAY. MY FIRST FLIGHT WAS TO LOCATE TWO VEHICLES AROUND THE NORTH EAST CORNER OF GREENLAND.

I SEARCHED AS FAR AS THE MOUTH OF INDEPENDENCE FIORD AND HAD TO RETURN TO THULE WITHOUT SUCESS BECAUSE OF LOW FUEL AND WIND CONDITIONS. THE NEXT DAY WAS BETTER AND I COULD SEARCH FURTHER. I WENT 30 MILES OFF THE MOUTH OF INDEPENDENCE FIORD AND FOUND THE TRACTOR SITTING ON TOP OF PRINCE DAGMAR ISLAND OR NORD AS IT WAS LATER CALLED. WE DROPPED PALLETS OF RADIOS FOOD AND CLOTHING AND RETURNED TO THULE. PALETTE AIR DROPS WERE ROUTINE BUT HERE ARE SOME OF THE MORE MEMORABLE AIR DROPS IN JUNE 1951 I WENT TO POPE AFB NC TO AIR DROP A 16000-LB ROAD GRADER WITH THE BLADE ATTACHED.
THE END OF THE GRADER STUCK OUT 15 FEET BEYOND THEEND OF THE CARGO COMPARTMENT TO JUST UNDER THE HORIZONTAL STABALIZER. THE DROP WAS SUCCESSFUL.SHO ENOUGH, ON MY NEXT TRIP TO THULE, MY FIRST DECK LOAD WAS A ROAD GRADER WITH BLADE ATTACHED. THE DROP AT NORD WAS SUCCESSFUL. WHAT THEY HAD NOT FIGURED OUT WAS THE ADDED DRAG AND HIGHER FUEL CONSUMPTION CAUSED BY THE EXTENDED ROAD GRADER. THIS WAS ONE TIME I LANDED BACK AT THULE WITH LOW FUEL.
ANOTHER LOAD OF DISTINCTION. TWO SOLID TIMBERS ABOUT 24 X 24 INCHES AND 40 FEET LONG WEIGHING ABOUT 8000 LBS EACH. THEY ALSO STUCK OUT THE REAR END ABOUT 8 FEET, BUT INDUCED LESS DRAG THAN THE ROAD GRADER. THE TIMBERS WERE ON ROLLERS ON THE CARGO FLOOR.
WE ENTERED NORD DROP ZONE AT 20 FEET ALTITUDE AND 105 KTS. THIS PUT THE CARGO FLOOR AT A 10 DEGREE ANGLE SO THE LOAD MASTER HAD NO TROUBLE SHOVING THE TIMBERS OUT OF THE AIRPLANE AT THE GIVEN SIGNAL IT MUST HAVE BEEN QUITE A SIGHT WHEN THE TIMBERS HIT THE SNOW. I MADE TWO DROPS LIKE THIS.
HALFWAY BETWEEN THULE AND NORD I SAW A USAF B-29 DOWN ON A FROZEN LAKE. WHEN REPORTED I WAS TOLD THE FOLLOWING. IN 1949 0R 1950 THE B=29 WAS ENROUTE FROM ALASKA TO THULE AND DUE TO BAD WEATHER MISSED THULE. THEY RAN OUT OF FUEL AND LANDED ON THE FROZEN LAKE.
THEY WERE RESCUED AND ALL 11 CREW MEMBERS WERE SAVED. IN 2002 OR 03 DISCOVRTY TV CHANNEL HAD A PROGRAM ABOUT A GROUP WHO TRIED TO RECOVER THE B-29. THEY GOT EVERY THING WORKING AND WAS MOVING THE PLANE WHEN THE APU (AUXILARY POWER UNIT) IN THE TAIL OF THE AIRCRAFT CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED UP THE PLANE.
