A view of the 85 footer at Stonehouse. Headquarters, Kagnew Station. Three bikes with Company B in the background. Some shots from Decamere Nick and Steve and their continuing adventures. A group of kids hamming it up for the camera. A great shot outside of town. The B Company houseboys, [1] and [2]. The road to Nefasit was something to see and drive! Here are 3 great views: [1] | [2] | [3] Looking west from the 2nd floor. Copacabana (Julie's) bar just outside the main gate.Zoom in Behind B Co barracks. Building at the right edge of the picture was the messhall Quarry near Decamere where the Eritreans cut those fabulous granite curbstones!. Rod Harnish and his 1941 Matchless/Guzzi Rod, Nick & I at "Joe's", off H.S. Blvd. Great peanuts, boiled eggs & cappucino. School somewhere in Asmara. What catches my eye now is that '56 Chevy. Looking east from 2nd floor B Company barracks. Another view of the Coptic Church. Downtown Nefasit. Downtown Asmara [1] | [2]. Tom's first scooter, a Suzuki X6, lot's of power! The local motorcyle, camels. Local kids hamming for the camera. Heading down the "main drag" in Asmara. The NCO billets on Kagnew. An old Fiat in front of the barracks. Rod Harnish skiing at Massawa. Note the construction of the R&R center! Another picture from Massawa.. A street scene allegedly from "someone's" lady friend's (?) house. Rod Harnish "taking a break" during a motorcycle trip Overlooking Stonehouse's ops building and at the 150 footer. Looking down the Stonehouse site road toward town. Golf course is on right. Downtown Asmara again [3] | [4]. Views from Stonehouse: 1. Lookin' at the golf course. (32K) 2. Might be STRATCOM and Tract C way in the background. (26K) 3. About 180 from 34s direction. (29K) 4. Back down the Stonehouse site road toward town slightly to the right. (34K) An unknown "speedy" 4 outside the Co B barracks. Note the LFCF patch next to the barracks door. LFCF? Lightning Fast .....

Another bike doing some climbing. Tom trashed this bike for him! Anyone remember this crew? Check our the rolled-under cuffs. What we have here is your typical ASA MP! A last look from the plane. "I didn't want to go home." [1] [2]. Looking out the main gate. A great shot of "Mom's" from the Top 5 parking lot. The B Co. barracks again from the T5 parking lot. A monsoon is moving in. Is that Guard Co. in the background? One of the best shots I've seen of the main gate!
