"I  was stationed at Goose 54-55 and the pictures were made in 1955, way before the ones (already posted) on the website." - retired USAF SMSgt Ralph Been.  The following photos 1-13 were contributed by Ralph Been.

Thank you very much for contributing these photos Ralph, they are truly excellent quality and provide a view of "life in the early days" of Melville Air Force Station!
(incidentally, the background music playing is the 1955 hit by the Four Lads....."Moments to Remember")
