| Message | I was at K.I. from '86-'92 in the SPS (Security) side. Haven't been back to the base since we left in '92, but we're hoping to be able to make it up there beofre the end of this summer. Curious to what changes our old house on Lancer St. has seen. Also want to take a look roung the 'AAPA' and the 'WSA' if at all possible. Thanks for the website, Jake |

| Message | Growing up in Gwinn, just a tad off the flight path with B-52's and KC-135's and yes the 106's flying overhead, I never realized what a unique and awesome childhood I was having. The touch-and-go's and planes fireing up on the Alert Pad and all the sounds are a fond memory of growing up near KI Sawyer. The things I took for granted then are the things I miss... the sound of "jet noise" brings me back whenever I hear it. My Dad...what can I say. I am so proud of you Ret MSGT James Heinz... still the only person I have ever known to spend his entire USAF career in one Squadron...what else the 87th FIS (Duluth and KI Sawyer). 20 years of service to the same squadron has to be some kind of record. You are doing some great work, Dad, helping to restore the 106. I never knew how important what you did was. I don't think I ever said 'Thank You' so now I am. I was also fortunate to Bartend at the KI Sawyer O Club (long after the 87th was no more). I finally realized then, what a unique person it takes to serve in the military. Thank you All for the great work you are doing, keeping the planes and the memories alive. |

| Message | Greetings from da U.P. ey! Things around here are starting to get exciting. Everyday we see the jet, she gets better and better looking. The painter has been contacted and he is ready to inspect the jet and get started. The decals are arriving any day. She looked great this week as we pulled her outside. If you have not made your plans to attend the dedication, do it now. This will be a great day for 87th FIS and for any one who has ever flown, supported or maintained the F-106's. We have moved the dedication inside to be sure the weather will not interupt us. One favor, if you read this and you are going to attend the dedication, please drop me a short email with who you are, when you were in the 87th and what you did. This will be great information to have at the dedication. Please bring a couple of extra bucks with you too. We are going to complete the restoration but it sure would be nice to put some money back to help take care of the jet later on down the road. Us "old farts" up here climbin around this old girl would sure like to see as many as you other old farts as we can. Don't miss out! Come see what we've done with this magnificant "Delta Dart."

| Message | I worked on 461 while with the 71st FIS from '66 to '69. Don't have any particular stories about her, so she must have been a reliable bird. I was really hoping that I get a chance to help in the restoration of her, but it just isn't going to happen, to many building projects at home. I am planning on driving up for the dedication though and am really looking forward to seeing the old girl again. Great job everyone!!! Frank Dutcher Saint Cloud, WI |

| Message | Hollo to you all. John Branda here in sunny Florida. Actually I am still working at age 68 and love it. Work for Lockheed Martin at Tyndall. We have F-106 drones here and if you need some more help let me know. I know I am a little late to offer because you have found or made all the parts you needed by now. Looks great. I was there 1974 to 1977. I was in the 11th FIS at Duluth and then the 87th FIS at KI and can go back to the 539th FIS at Mcquire where we did the phase 3 testing of the F-106. Great job. |
