Jim Raleigh: RE: RR
I thought I had read something from some some one in the Fountain Valley or Costa Mesa area. Perhaps if they are out there somewhere he could go over and check out their office. It is not that far away from Huntington Beach. Go west on Warner Ave from Garden Grove far to the west of Beach Blvd(Hwy 39) and work your way around to the South side of what was at one time McDonald Douglas's Huntinton Beach facility to the area of small comercial Mfg/warehouse/office bldgs. That is where the office. Warner runs from the Costa Mesa -Fountain Valley area all the way over to the where the Seal Beach Navel Wepons Depot was and maybe still is.
