I can remember doing this and we got awards for the amount of hours put in. It was called the Ground Observers Corp of America I believe. I used to go and serve my time a lot with Myrna Oster.

Goca
Just wonder if anyone remembers Goca, where we used to go up to the standpipe, we had a little shack up there and listen and watch for airplanes, then we called in some where to report the planes.

Hahaha, Claudine, I was just remembering that the other day. I asked Sherri if she remembered and she did. Now we're wondering what year that was.

I remember going to GOC Hill with Mamma for her "Watch". We learned the shape of all the planes, but never saw any of them. Our town has always had such a patriotic spirit! That was alot of work to man that hill every day for, what must have been, months.
