McClellan AFB, CA: U.S. Dept. of the Air Force, 1969. 8.25" x 10.5", 8, wraps, 3-hole punched, illus., trimmed to 8.25" x 10.5" (later untrimmed issues were measured at 8.75" x 12"). Trimmed presumably to fit into a three-ring binder--text is essentially intact, but some text impacted. The 552nd AEW&C Wing was activated as a permanent organization in 1955 and was deactivated in early 1975. The 522ndAEW&C (Airborne Early Warning and Control) Wing was a significant unit during the height of the cold war. This type of military unit informationalperiodical is very ephemeral, is frequently destroyed shortly after issuance, and seldom gets into the military and collectible marketplace in any condition. Condition: fair.
