Reading our own member & author's books -
Feb 18 - Stephen Gladish is our own 6th Weather
Squadron writer, author who has published his first novel Moonlight, Missiles,
& Moana and is preparing to release his second and third soon. Lets support
him as he writes about the adventures of a couple 6th Weather troops in the
Pacific, and the Nevada test site. Thank You, 6WSAA Webmaster. Go to
Stephen Gladish
page.
Mustang Fever, Run Free With Wild Mustangs,
second novel of adventure and romance in the trilogy. This time the heroine is
not a Polynesian princess, who sings and dances and wishes she could have been a
Christian disciple, but a brave and brilliant Southern Paiute Indian woman, a
mustanger who rides and rescues, and wishes she could have been Sarah
Winnemucca.
Tracking the
Skies for Lacy is
a Sixth Weather Squadron military adventure romance novel with inspirational
themes of love and loss, danger and perseverance. Luke LaCrosse joins the Air
Force’s Sixth Weather Squadron (Mob), tracks weather balloons twenty miles up to
provide information to USAF weather forecasters, supports upper-atmosphere
thermonuclear missile tests around Samoa, chases tornadoes with classic
motorcycles and Sixth Weather sidekicks in Oklahoma, and flies rescue
helicopters in Vietnam, always yearning to reconnect with Lacy DeLuca who has
held his heart since early high school. The novel is dedicated to all members of
Sixth Weather Squadron, whose camaraderie, self-reliance, and adventures around
the world were handed down and around from one reunion to the next.

about Meteorology - All
6th Mobbers...If you like to read and enjoy reading books about
meteorology...this might be of interest. .Ted Lungwitz
The late Col Jack Sharp's book, "Cold Fronts," with
a preface by Brig Gen Al Kaehn, tells the story of Jack's life in AWS during
the Cold War, retiring in 1974. It is on the web at the
Air Weather Reconnaissance Association website at
http://www.awra.us/coldfronts/cf_toc.html .
Note from Webmaster: Ted tells me that the book was never
published but I have downloaded and printed 2 copies of it, 156 pages of 8.5 X
11", and placed it in a 3 ring binder for reading by our members. Just
let me know if you're interested in reading it and I will ship you a copy. All
you have to do is return it when you're done. Questions? E-mail me.
Air
Force BMT Flight Photo Project -
The Air Force is trying to capture BMT Flight Photos over the past 60 years,
 and
members of the 6th WX might be a good source for some of these, and would like
to participate. I went to the website and they have a pretty good start, but
a long ways to go. It's an interesting site to browse. I think this is one
of the 60th anniversary projects. Can you pass the information along please?
And if you have photos, send them in. It really is quite an undertaking, but
they are sure giving it a try! Gordon & Barb
The info piece I was given says: ATTENTION ALL CURRENT AND FORMER ENLISTED
AIR FORCE MEMBERS! The USAF BMT Flight Photo project is back online at
www.bmtflightphotos.af.mil
In order for this project to be a success we need your help obtaining BMT
flight photos. If you do not see your flight photo on the website that means
we probably have not received it so if you have it PLEASE get it to us. All
BMT Flight Photo Project inquiries can be sent to:
