If you’re an “Old Crow” — or a friend of one — drop me a line. I’m trying to learn more about the fine, fine work y’all are doing. All conversations will be off-the-record, naturally.

Stupid question : What’s an Old Crow ?
“Association of Old Crows” was an Electronics Warfare group about 40 years ago….
My mum worked for AFCEA she did work with an organization called the Old Crows … matter of fact I have an Old Crows hat.
I didn’t know they were an electronic warfare outfit.
Thought it was Air Force. OC activity that I’m relating had to AF related … I believe …
Cheers,
Ben
I am an a friend of a guy named Wally who was at NAS Sand Point, WA during WW11. I’ll pass it on, though I can’t seem to respond to the article as posted. Regards Keith
Hi.
I have a long history of being associated with Crows. In WWII, I served as a radio operator on an Eighth AF B-24 bomber flying out of England, and over the English Channel, to block the German listening posts from picking up chit chat from Army AF pilots forming for a bombing mission. In later years, I worked in military technical intelligence in trying to determine how the the other side was developing their ballistic missiles and space vehicles. My last position, in the Crow associated area, was as a Supervisor, in the Naval Intelligence Directorate on Foreign Launched Ballistic Missiles.
I would to chat with anyone who has ab interest in this area.
