Hey Barry
Thank You for your works, Sir!
Back in 1967 when I flew into Kadena AB (RODN) Okinawa in my C-130E, we were in a hurry to get loaded and unloaded to get back to CCK AB, Taiwan. I do not remember the parking areas much but I do remember being in the "Fuel Cell Hangar" for two days. Usually when my "Herky Bird" had a "Red X" for grounding, I stayed on the aircraft, but you cannot stay on an airplane in the "Fuel Cell". So, for two nights I slept on a "LAPS" (low altitude parachute extraction) platform and a cox. Under the stars in Okinawa in March was very cool temperatures but nice stars!
I have more flights to Europe coming.
