MessageWe were at KI Sawyer from 1990-1994,then moved on to Offutt in Nebraska. We still have great memories of our years there. My husband was a Jag, and loved the snowmobiling and skiing. We hope to visit soon- I'm glad to hear that the base is being used. This Site is great, too. Our children are anxious to visit the place they have heard so much about!

MessageGreetings from the Volunteer State!
I was stationed at K.I. from 11-67 until 3-69. I was assigned to Security and moved to Law Enforcement. I began my frigid service working the DP posts in the beautiful landscape of Marquette. I resided on base. I was selected and received orders to OFFIT in Nebraska to serve in the Elite Guards. Within 2 weeks of those Air Force orders, I received PACAF orders for South East Asia. The PACAF orders were the high card so I went back to Lackland for a three week training course AZR then shipped out. I served 12 months and 29 days at UBON Air Field in SEA. I was discharged in March of 71 @ Whiteman Air Field in Knob Noster, (sp?) MO.
In 2007 I will celebrate 40 years of service in some capacity of the Law Enforcement field.
K.I. sits in the National Forest and its a wonderful place to VISIT. For us ole southern boy, MAN WAS THAT A COLD PLACE!

Best regards to all, Ward

MessageJust found this sight and plan to keep up with it. I was stationed at KI from 1975-1982, in the 410th Jet shop, worked test cell, Apu shop and was FMS Dorm manager till my family and I left for Travis in 82. I also learned to scuba dive under Bill(Ret. CMSgt) and Kathy Gassett, if you can and want to see some of the most interesting and exciting scenery in the UP, then Lake Superior has it. Thanks for the great site.

MessageJust surfed into the site.Very interesting and informative. I was never stationed at Saywer, but live in Marquette. My UPS job took me to Sawyer everyday, and I was there to see it wind down in 94, 95. Having been in Marine Corps aviation I always enjoyed the "open house" and didn't miss very many. Hope the musuem there continues to grow.

MessageI was an AGE troop in the the 410 MMS trailer maintenance shop from 75 to 80. Came back in 92 just in time to close up. I transfered all that ground support equipment to the civilian side just before I left in May 95. Does anybody know if it is still sitting in a hanger?
Thanks

MessageI was stationed at KI Sawyer from 1975 to 1978. Just out of Basic & Tech School. Never saw snow in my life! It was a beautiful location though remote. Enjoyed my tour there. I haven't had a chance to visit the area since 1978. I hope to take a nostalgic trip back up to the UP soon. Currently living in NC but never forgot the UP and KI Sawyer. I was in the 2001st and worked in a electronics maintenance shop next to the Command Center. It seems so long ago and yet still remember some things as if yesterday. I didn't realize how young I was back then. Oh, hello Ted Stutzman. Thank you for letting me reminisce!

MessageGreat Site! I was at Sawyer from Jan 74 to Jan 79, first assigned to the 410th and later to the 2001st. I lived on Albatross drive and everytime a 106 would take off, my screen door would bang like the house was coming down. My 2 sons were born at the base hospital, and my daughter will graduate from NMU next fall, so I still occasionally drive through and look around.
Hopefully I can get back to see your bird when you put it on display.

MessageI was stationed at KI from June '82 to Dec '85. Part of the 410th SPS. I had the chance to visit the base this past summer with my brother and our wives. My how the memories came flooding back. I am glad to see that the closure did not "kill" the area. You have done a great job keeping Sawyer in the spot light and I hope all of us that were stationed there will not forget it. I hope to return in a few years and take more time looking around. smilie
