ZZA LAUNCH - 313th TFS, 50th TFW Hahn AB, Germany.

Video of the 313th while TDY at Zaragoza, Spain. Likely March of 1987. If my memory serves me correctly, this was a launch of the entire squadron from a mass attack exercise on the base.

I’ve seen OV-10’s at Ramstein in 1989. Hahn AB was a lot of fun. Our barracks were very close to the flight line. On a breezy warm day jet fuel fumes would carry through the dorms. Ah, the memories..............🇺🇸😎👍. (Former 50th SPS).

I was there in fuels 80-82 working the hot pits.

I was stationed at Hahn from 69 to 72 in CE! Best base ever!

Great video.

They looked so much better in the 80s with those big codes and colored squadron badges. Everything is toned down nowadays

I was at Spangdahlem 82-85. If my memory is correct Spang and Hahn were at Z at the same time each deployment. And the OV-10s from Sembach. Were those Spang F-4s in the video at the end? Z was a crazy 30 day trip. The bus to town and the pub crawls. The bars Scotch, No Name, Scratch, too many to remember.

[@lancemontoya2096]

Just mention the Dolly bar an we who have been there will know you have been there. 😃

[@mike-in-fla4717]

@@lancemontoya2096 Never heard of the Dolly. Visited Scotch, No Name, Why Not, & Scratch too many times.

[@Jax0319]

Nice, didnt they have an A-10 squadron as well?

[@pjotrtje0NL]

A-10s based at Hahn? No, they weren’t even a FOB.
