Attached are a few photos of OTC, and also a shot of Tumon Bay, now loaded with hotels and strip malls. We sure lived there at a good time.<\/p>\n

A friend of mine\u00a0who lived on Guam and was known by a lot of OTC folk visited there last week (circa 1\/8\/17) and sent photos of the station and the area where the houses once stood. All of the houses are gone and now overgrown by vegetation.<\/p>\n

These photos may be of interest to past folk who worked at the station.<\/p>\n

Cheers<\/p>\n

Hi, Thanks for Laurie’s pics of Guam. We were so taken with the place\u00a0that Liz & I + Ben McGee and Janine, went back there Nov 2009.<\/p>\n

We called at the cable station which is now owned by AT&T, and as\u00a0expected they wouldn’t let us go inside for security reasons. However\u00a0they didn’t care if we looked at the houses. They had erected a cyclone\u00a0wire fence along the road but gave us the key to a gate. The houses were\u00a0still there but obscured by the jungle, and I suspect they are still there.<\/p>\n

Attached are my photos (I have lots). It was sad to see the state of the\u00a0houses which were once so good. We lived in number 105 directly in front\u00a0of the cable station and the house pics are of our house. I cant\u00a0understand why the US air force never used these homes as I believe they\u00a0were on their land. There was a terrific view over Tumon bay from the\u00a0back verandah.<\/p>\n
