I was at Bruggen 1974/7 whilst 14, 17 and 31 had the F4. We at Station Flight used to drag a ground power unit around the 'peri track' every few months or so to the US C141s that unloaded on a taxiway next to to sheep dip where we did the engine runs. Always heavily guarded with US military and it was rare to get even close to the loading and unloading during the weapon exchanges. The onbase BX as Blanket says was superb, ah, happy days . . .
