I was elated to see the picture of the airbase, Sioux Falls Radio School. All looks familiar and brings up many memeoreis. I was in Class 42-44 Sq.207 Looking for graduation book for that class.

Graduated Dec '43. Dont recall Squad. number or class #.
I remember our daily run about 6 in AM and after Oct breathing that air with coal dust in it

Al (Lorenz) and Samuel (Harris): If you know, I'd sure like to have the start and graduation dates of your Radio School Class(es). That would help make a list of the Class #s and Dates.

There's an official (microfilm) record of the 1st 24 Classes (thru May, 19, 1943), but no record of the classes after that. It would also help 'match-up' Class Books to their Classes.

Have you looked through the Class Books on this Website to see if you are in any of them?

Any info is helpful, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I am looking for any information about my dad. Edward Slebodnik birthdate February 16 1921. He died when he was 57 in 1979. Please if anyone has pictures of him at the army airforce technical school I would appreciate any information. I found out today from my moms brother who is retired in Flandreau S.D. that is how he came to meet my mom Frances Thompson.She died February 20th 1963 on my 11th birthday. He thinks they met at a dance. He told me that my dad was assigned to a radio technical school in Sioux Falls.

To Monica Burck
Try to write to the Public Relations officer at the current base. They have the historical info you probably need and photos.
