    Anybody here from MACS-5 Beaufort, SC

    Found out it is no longer as of the 90's!

    Great group of guys, loved Beaufort.

    Went back to Beaufort this summer after 25 years, what a change! Sleepy little Beaufort is no longer!

    Looked on sat photo, golf ball still there, but nothing but trucks where our huts used to be! Beq's gone/ changed

    Any body remember the numb-nut from trans they sent to paint the golf ball with lead based paint!

    Used to listen to the radio, and watch tv with a seven second sweep loss signal!

    Macs-5, tds 1985-1986

    I was with MATCS-28 in 76-77, we were the HQ unit in New River for all the air traffic controllers on the east coast. I'm not sure about MACS-5?

    I was down in NC about 15 years ago and it was completely different along the coast. We lived in Sneads Ferry for a couple years, I loved the little fishing town isolated south of Lejuene.

    Im currently stationed at MCAS beaufort. Obviously wasnt there in the 90s but the town is growing really quickly. Came back from a 9 month deployment and all the roads are changed and new restaurants everywhere.
