First we travelled on a Lockheed C5 Galaxy from Joint Base McGuire-Dix in New Jersey
to the following ports of call:
RAF Mildenhall ~ United Kingdom...visited area around base during two day layover...then the same C5 Galaxy to:
Ramstein AB ~ Germany...visited surrounding area to include Heidelberg, Stuttgart, Ulm, Munich, then...
Took the Bullet Train to Paris, France for a day trip...then back to Germany for a few more days...visiting Frankfurt, and the ancient Roman city of Trier near Belgium.
Then a
real looong plane ride on a McDonnell Douglas KC-10 Extender to Travis AFB, California to visit Napa Valley, Sacramento, then to San Francisco, Santa Cruz and down to Monterrey and back.
Then we hopped a Boeing C-17 Globemaster III for another long ride to JB Pearl Harbor - Hickam on the island of Oahu, Hawaii for some R&R.
There we visited the USS Arizona Memorial...the Battleship USS Missouri...Hickam Air Field...Honolulu, Waikiki, and Diamond Head.
Then, well rested and tan...we hopped another McDonnell Douglas KC-10 for another
looong jet ride back to JB McGuire-Dix in New Jersey then home to Pennsylvania.
An awesome month long vacation...!!
