Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station

2006-06-13T10:40:00.000-04:00

Just 17 days before the attack on Pearl Harbor, construction began on the Marine Corps air station known as Cherry Point. Once only North Carolina swampland and forest, Cherry Point is now the world's largest Marine Corps Air Station, and home to the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing. The wing consists of six groups; four aircraft groups, flying all combat aircraft in the Marine inventory, one aircraft control group and one engineer group. MCAS Cherry Point hosts Marine Air Group 14 (MAG-14), and also serves as the host installation for Commander Marine Corps Air Bases East (COMCABEAST). MAG-14 is the primary East Coast operating unit for the Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier (four squadrons) and EA-6B Prowler (four squadrons). The Group also includes four squadrons of KC-130 tankers and an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) squadron. (Read More)

What, Where and When

2006-06-12T13:45:00.000-04:00

At my post along the Pamlico River, I get to hear lots of Mil-Air stuff. I can identify some of it and some I can't. Even the stuff that I cannot ID is fun to listen to. Here is one of the things that can be heard here.

What: In-Air refueling
Where: 266.4000 MHz AM
When: Mostly in the evenings before 2300 Hrs. Local. Sometimes during the day they can be heard as well.

I invite everyone to comment and contribute.

Welcome to my new BLOG. It will be updated with information, frequencies, thoughts and findings about Military monitoring from my location in Eastern North Carolina. My primary interest is MIL-AIR, but you may find other stuff of interest here as well. Stay tuned and enjoy.
