Comment: I was a pilot (plane commander) in AEWBARRONPAC.
Over 2000 hours in the WV-2 flying the "barrier". It was a proviledge to talk to the DEW ships and made us appreciate their tough duty rolling and pitching in the Pacific Ocean!
I later commanded a Navy jet squadron VS-32 (S-3's) on USS John F. Kennedy, CV67 and USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, CVN-69 and retired in 1986.

I have some wonderful 35mm slides of those 18 day deployments I spent at Midway.
