I thought I would post this since there was all ready thread going about Litchfield NAS.
There are some of the lucky ones to escape the scrappers,
I saw this FJ Fury around 82-84 at Buckeye.

And I finally located the site of the old Mosely Field, it is almost exactly 1 mile north of where I live,
the strip was short at about 2500 ft, if you look close, you can see a line of Corsairs

and in Honor of Veterans Day, I thought this was fitting, it was on the starboard side of the FJ
