Boscomantico Army Airfield, Verona (Source: William Hansen, 202nd Trans Co (Lt Hel)) A group of officers and NCO's listen to a briefing about the newly installed portable airfield tower. The tower can be quickly loaded onto a 2½-ton truck and moved to a new location on short notice. Bill Hansen's comments: When the portable tower arrived I was the one who installed the equipment inside it. Everything else was attached to it. The antennas were hydraulic and the legs were all hydraulic making it very easy to load on a 2½-ton truck making it portable for maneuvers. In reading the e-mail from Richard Young he stated that they used the tower for taking weather readings. That's real cool. They must have made a lot of changes to BMA after I left.
