Spent 14 months and 8 days on the DEW line in 66 - 67 (Pin Main Cape
Parry) I can add a bit of trivia Cambridge bay Dew Line site was Cam
Main. We had a C46 crash - well lost a landing gear and they found
another one and brought it up and made a working C46 out of the two -
I'll look in the files to see if I have any images.
