No specific mention of any Blair activity in the book, but the local sherriff remembers a toublemaker by that name...As a point of interest, my father was posted to St Maggies. My brother and I ran a roadside bait shop selling night crawlers. Business was good, but the customers (being airmen with way too much time on their hands either fished or golfed or both) were always complaining about holes dug in the fairways...

Did the sherriff tell you about the night he locked me in his jail and my motorcycle in the firehouse ajoining the local hoosgow..??
What did he expect from a thirsty,horney 20 year old airman with too much time on his hands ...There was no fishing and golfing for this kid..I was spending my time wisely..
If your dad was there in '64 we probably met in St Maggies mess..depending on what rank he was...tHe airmans mess was the place to be...
especially on lobster and dime beer night..
Ahhhhhhh the good old days..
