This
veteran first enlisted in the US Navy in 1952 and he quickly became an
AT3, or
Aircraft Technician 3. His first shipboard assignment
was on the USS Badoeng Strait - CVE-116. He later served on the USS Bon
Homme Richard - CVA-31 possibly during some nuclear tests at Eniwetok
in the mid 1950s. At some point in the late 1950s he
obtained an officer's commission and became a navigator and then pilot. I
am fairly certain he served in some flying capacity in SEA for the
Navy - not sure what he was flying then. At around the same time he went
through Navy SERE
training and may have been with the SERE training unit later on (late
1960s - early
1970s?) for a while (hence the coffee cup and utility cover/hat I have
listed in a separate listing). He flew EC-130Gs for the Navy to support secure communications with Polaris equipped SLBM submarines. He continued to fly EC-130s in the early days of TACAMO and Silk Purse -
possibly later flew the E-6A when it took over for the EC-130G/Qs. He retired as a Commander (silver oak leaf - Navy) and was said to have served at least 30 years..!! - that is all I was able to learn. He
may also have flown or at least worked for American Airlines in some
capacity after his military career. He absolutely loved to fly, period,
and at one time owned a Piper J-3 and possibly other light aircraft, maybe a Piper Cherokee Warrior. He
lived at a small air park (small airport with housing subdivision) and his home was complete with a
large hangar. He could drive his Piper J-3 to the runway a couple blocks
from his home - heaven for a pilot!
This is a single used, Goodyear part number 954321(8/9), 5.00-5 light aircraft split wheel hub.

Roswell Army Airfield is striving to become one of the best and most reliable sellers of unique and interesting estate and garage sale finds on eBay. We will feature many military related items, both memorabilia and historical as well as more recent military items. You will also find non-military items listed which we find to be unique and interesting along with a few things for the girls.
The posted picture(s) is what you will receive if you win the bidding. PayPal is required. If you desire alternate payment methods please email me, I am pretty flexible. Credit cards are accepted through PayPal (only) at the present time. Patches may have glue and scrap book paper on back. If they do I will post a photo showing that.
Note, due to ever increasing shipping costs, most patches below $20 may be shipped in a plain envelope with suitable protection. Patches (over $20), metal badges, etc., will be shipped in a padded envelope. Payment must be sent within 10 days or item will be re-listed. I will combine shipping with multiple wining bids and get buyers the best price. If the shipping cost is over estimated, I will refund any amounts over $1.00. I have a very good track record of having done so, rest assured! Please note that once I mail the item, delivery is beyond my control. Almost always there will be a tracking number. There is no return on paper items such as books, magazines, etc.
To my valued future customers, I work a regular job and my work hours
are 8am-5 pm making it nearly impossible to ship Tuesday through
Friday. Saturday, Monday and Tuesday are my shipping days. I try to get
your items out as soon as possible but some times 5 or 6 days may be
needed to get your goods in the mail. Please if you have some special
need of overnight/2nd day shipping let me know and I will do my best to
make you happy. My careful descriptions should detail any
issues/problems with anything I am selling, if there are any.
Attention Overseas Buyers: Please contact me about shipping rates before bidding! All items over $20 in value must be shipped by insured international methods. Please be aware that random
inspections or delays of international items can result in total
shipping times of up to 4 to 6 weeks (usually 2 to 3 weeks). Depending on your location,
prohibitions, customs, duties or import taxes may apply at the point of
delivery. Please check with your USPS-servicing deliverer to determine
if you will be subject to these additional costs or restrictions.
NOTE: As
of March 2015 we will no longer be shipping to Mexico because of
rampant fraudulent buyers and lack of seller support from eBay and
PayPal to mitigate the problem - Thank You to my, good, former customers in Mexico - Sorry for any inconvenience..!!
eBay's fees are very expensive and you can help me keep costs down by giving top numbers in detailed seller ratings (DSRs). If you feel there is a problem just let me know before you leave feedback so I have a chance to resolve any issue. NM sales tax will be charged to New Mexico residents only.
I will gladly combine on the shipping but please WAIT to pay so I can easily combine your shipping total. I will happily sell overseas, but I insist (as does eBay) on shipping with a tracking number of some sort via priority or express. I will not declare a lower amount on the customs form! Please do not ask me to do so. I will not be responsible for thefts on overseas purchases, especially if the item's tracking shows it entered the customs process in the destination country! I welcome buyers from all over the world. Thank you for looking!
