Radio Intercept Operators
I found a really interesting paper written by SMSgt James M. Houle who was a SNCOA student in February of 1996. The title was “Essay on Morse Code Operators in the Air Force.” It gave some good explanations of what my Dad probably did early on in the USAFSS. I’ve included a link below to the file here on the website:

Hi
I was a ditty bop in the USAFSS from 1966-70 trained at Keesler and stationed in San Vito Air Station in Italy
I wrote that paper….
I didn’t know it was available to the public until now.
How cool is that?
My “ditty-bop” assignments included: Crete from 75-77, again from 80-82; Kelly AFB, Tx 78-80; San Vito 85-88; Elmendorf 91-96; and finally NSGA Northwest 96-99.
Wow, I’m impressed.
Jim Houle (if you are the same JH from Maine) was my barracks red/yellow “rope” at Keesler in 63. I roomed with Bill Lafferty. After Goodfellow I went to Crete, Italy, and England.
How Cool Is THAT???
I was a red/yellow “rope” at Keesler in ’63. Went from there to Darmstadt, Germany ’64’65. From there to Peshawar, Pakistan. What a small world.
