This was taken around 1968 – 69. Back then Hickam AFB was a beehive of activity with aircraft of all types and sizes going to or coming from Southeast Asia. So many birds in on this day that they were being parked on taxiways! Much of this flight line in the background doesn’t exist anymore; housing areas and other facilities have replaced it.
