Due to a couple of queries about the Norman, Oklahoma Naval Aviation Technical Training Center I am putting together a couple of images I have garnered in the past few years. I am not responsible for the taking of any of them, merely a repository for others work.
The first drawing is a layout of the base as it was in the 1950s time period. Some may fondly recall details once they see this.
The second document is a key to the first one, naming the various buildings and their uses. This may help some locate specific buildings they may be searching for.
The third photo is the Google Earth depiction of it as it is today. Norman NATTC is the center portion of this photo. The streets and such can be noted to yet be much the same, but most of the rest of the base is gone.
I was stationed here in January of 1959. The local people were very nice to us young sailors, so far from home. This one has never forgotten their unselfish hospitality. Some of the local families would invite us into homes for Sunday dinner. They were so kind to us. Many thanks from a grateful senior.
