Crete 75 ASP

In July of 1974 and 1975 I was fortunate enough to be on the team to go to Crete for our Annual Service Practice. In 74 I was responsible for the computer checks and early warning plotting board during the actual fire mission. In 75 I was there as test coordinator on the switchboard and was an observer up on the mountain. This is how I got these pictures.
