Sampson AFB veterans get-together is March 14

LEWISTON — The March get-together of the Southern Maine Squadron of the Sampson AFBVA will be at noon, Thursday, March 14, at Governors Restaurant, 1185 Lisbon St.

This is an informal monthly get-together of veterans who went through basic training at Sampson Air Force Base and their guests. Sampson was at first a Navy training base, then reactivated as a basic training base for the Air Force in the Korean War era. All veterans are welcome to attend.
The base, in Romulus, N.Y., was open from 1942 to 1956.
