| Moffat Field: Many years ago I was dating a girl whose father was #2 on base. (Very scary.) Anyway, one day she decided we should drive to Moffat & she would show me around. I was amazed when, while driving dad's old astrovan, the guards saluted us and waved us in without a word. Apparently they couldn't afford the reprimand if the admiral was in the van and they hadn't saluted.
Also, her dad had recently been promoted and had to move house from his #3 position house to the #2 house on the little command cul-de-sac. Weird & wasteful but it worked for them.
Years later, I lived in a trailer park adjacent to Moffat and was dumbstruck as the Blue Angels rocketed over the park at 75 - 100 feet. The noise and vibration was intense and scary and wonderful all at once. I still remember how it felt 25 years later.
