Sigonella in the 60's

I've met a handful of Hawaii people who are living in Sigonella, Sicily now. But I've known a Sigonellan family living in Hawaii nearly all my life.

Meet Capt. John H. Caldwell - then and now.



Capt. Caldwell, his wife Eloise and son David not only lived in Sigonella in the 1960s. John was the CO of the base.



Here's Capt. Caldwell with screen siren Lana Turner during her visit to Sigonella.




The Caldwells pose with other Sigonellan officers and their wives. John and Eloise are 4 and 5th from the right.
