[QUOTE]Originally posted by Iron Mountain: [QB] George and Palmland, I may have shared this experience in the past but since you all are talking about the ICRR and Millington I will relate my experience with the ICRR, Millington, and the NAS. I was stationed there from about late 1964 to early 1965. I remember it was winter and I contracted pnuemonia while at Millington NAS. At that time I was in the USMC attending electronics school. My buddy and I decided to go to Memphis to see the ducks in the Peabody Hotel, etc. We caught the southbound train to Memphis, I assume it was the Louisiane. We enjoyed liberty and showed up at the station for the trip back to the base. I think that the station was Memphis Central. We were just about late. I remember well sprinting through the station and into the trainshed and seeing the train starting to pull out of the station. We hollered and waved as we ran. The conductor saw us and he stopped the train for us. Point of the story, Millington must have been a stop. Years later I looked at ICRR schedules and could not find any evidence of Millington being a stop for the ICRR. Why would that be? [/QB][/QUOTE]
