Tom, the F-100 was displayed on the north end of a grassy area directly ESE and across the street from the Base Theater (SE corner of Scherz and Valiant St). Current map shows the area due south of the Chapel parking lot, but until about 8 years ago, the Wing Headquarters building was pretty much where the new Chapel is - with a much different street configuration directly in front with the flag pole in the middle of the 'triangle' shown on the 'street map.' Hope this helps.

Does anyone know or remeber where the F-100 static display was located while on Goodfellow. It is now located at Seymour Johnson N.C. There is a pic of it while at Goodfellow at the following linc; http://modelingmadness.com/research/pop/pop9.htm Maybe someone can simply post its GPS location from Google Maps Thanks, TOM

I was an Aviation Cadet in Basic Flight Training stationed at Goodfellow AFB from Dec 1954 to Jun 1955 when we graduated a 2nd/Lt. We flew the T-28A and later the TB-25J. One TB-25L. More memorable than the flying was the Naylor Hotel downtown San Angelo - and for reasons that cannot be discussed here. They were glorious days flying at tree top level across West Texas. Formation flying like raids on Japan. Last B-25 I flew was 44-31812.

Does anyone remember my father, Leo Paulic, who was a flight instructor there during WWII?

Mr. Brown: No, it is not named after your ancestor. It is named after a pilot from San Angelo who was shot down during World War I. Most Air Force bases (and other military installations) are named after military members who have distinguished themselves in the line of duty, and have some pertinent tie to the installation or region for which is their namesake.
