A project was begun two years ago in search of the 497th FIS members who served together at Geiger Field, Spokane, WA and Torrejon Air Base, Madrid, Spain fifty years ago.  Many hours and much work have gone into the search for these men.  It is our pleasure to post the results of our efforts.  Since our resources are very limited, there are still many members we have not been able to locate.  Hopefully some who visit our website will have additional information.  Contact: Marion "Newt" Newton    497FIS@gmail.com
