This is the 1st entry in Todd's dialogue on the
"final days" of Kagnew Station. I've been in contact with Todd over the months
and he has graciously accepted my offer to share his thoughts on the closing of
Kagnew. I hope you will enjoy this as there has been much interest and
questioning as to what it was like.
CWO3 Todd D. Conley was Technical Control Officer at Kagnew
1975-77. His unit was NCTAMS EURCENT, formerly NAVCAMS MED and he was to write
a series of articles on the final days of Kagnew. I have since lost contact
with Todd and can not find him so this may be his one and only entry for this
page. My last contact with him was at a Naval station in Naples, Italy. If
anyone knows what has happened to Todd please email me and let me know. Let's
hope he's ok and is just out of touch.

I recently received a note from Clark Hill, who
also was involved with the final days of Kagnew. I have asked him to write his
thoughts and he has agreed to contribute to the page.f Here is his original
message with a brief summary about the end.

| Larry Young has sent in some notes about his
experience at the end. Sounds like everyone there should have been awarded
combat pay.
