Loring Combined Systems
NightShift Fun and Games  

 
   We used to play "Missile Bay Chicken" by grabbing the bottom lip of the door while it was on the way up and ride it up...with the "Chicken" being the first person to let go and press the Stop (...and sometimes Down button) so that the other participants could get off.
   We always had a standing joke wondering just what would happen if NOBODY "chickened out" during the door's opening...as the height at the full open position was high enough that having to drop from there onto the concrete
missile bay floor would probably have resulted in injury.

   So here we are, SSgt Jerry Livermore (in the leather jump boots) and myself (in my favorite winter footwear, Mukluks!)
having ridden the door to the top and suddenly in that predicament,

In 1980 the 42 FMS had a Jet Engine mechanic who worked out of a
building on the flight line that at one time was called the Combined Systems building ( this is the place they used to test Hound Dog missiles ) ( You C/S Troops remember that don't you ? ) They converted it over to the Jet Engine Test Cell. He said that anyone who worked the flightline at Loring knows what building he was referring to because of all the noise those engines made.
 

( There sure was no noise when you C/S troops had it )
