While going through a box of stuff, I found an envelope with a bunch of snapshots taken at a show. I think I know who gave them to me but what military base was this show at? It must be So Cal and the year around 1986 as both Blue Max and Unruly Julie were there.

Thanks Zane. Maybe the fact that they were taken at different shows had me confused as to the location.

I'm almost certain none of those were taken at Brownfield. I worked there for years. Looks to me that those pictures were taken at different location. They all look like southern California.
