My favorite restaraunt was at the end of the runway at Clark AB. It was upstairs and when the Phantoms would take off om tamdem and at full afterburner they would cause the tables to shake. Loved that birdsnest soup there. 8)
just an interesting observation the authorizing general for you tm, at the end was general westmorelane, ie vietnam era chief of staff. man these trucks are getting old. hee hee.
