RCAF base parking map from page 9 of Station Sea Island Air Force Day Program, June 14, 1958  -kindly donated by René Bousquet of St Stephen, New Brunswick on March 15, 2005

Which numbered buildings correspond to the buildings mentioned in the RCAF base parking map from page 9 of Station Sea Island Air Force Day Program, June 14, 1958 from René Bousquet?

Which were single men or single airwomen barracks?  One or some of the Barrack Blocks were also used by married folks waiting to get into a home in the PMQ section beside Burkeville; which ones were they?  Which was the School Annex building? The Wet Club or Wet Canteen (Schooner Club?), Where was the 7 o'clock club? the Officer's Mess, the Fire Hall, etc., etc.

The large home on the right as you pass the guard house apparently was the Fire Chief's house. (un-numbered here)

#12 - Main guardhouse/MP shack

#11  Gym and theatre.

#5, a Barrack Block

#6, short residential single unit - Is it a Barrack Block? - comments on its use: TMQ? Etc.

#7 large "H" residential -TMQ

#8 large "H" residential -TMQ

#9 large "H" unit  The west side was the Airman's Mess and the east side was the Sgt's and WO Mess (RW)

#25, small "H" residential unit? - Is it a Barrack Block? - comments on its use: TMQ? Etc.

#26, #27  Barrack Blocks

#78 and #79 -storage 

#30  Heavy equipment

#10  Social Centre, All ranks (RW)  was this the Sea Island Schooner club?  Cpl's Mess? Wet Canteen?

#13

#28

#29  was the airwomen's Barracks..

#77  the FORUM  Recreation centre  bowling Alley, movie theatre, gymnasium, etc.

#15  the 1-bed base hospital (RW) and Chapel (ST)

#25 was the Schooner club, we always referred to it as "The Wets".

#2 - ? immediately west of the CO's residence (which is un-numbered)

#3  appears to be a small "H" residential unit? - Is it a Barrack Block? - comments on its use: TMQ? Etc - Officer's Mess (RW)

#4  Fire Hall

#14  a snack bar that open sometime in 56 and was still there through 58

#16 and #31 appeared to be joined.  What were they used for?

#1  Base HQ building  Administration, CO, officers, pay, orderly room and records

#17

#19, #20, #21, #22 #32                                                                                                                                        #56 was the Link trainer.

#74  RCAF 121 KU HQ  and or Ops Centre and Communication Centre (RW) - former Sherwood Farms barn

Then small un-numbered building between #14 and #4 was the Dental clinic (RW)

I believe that the street name between building no. 29 and 27 is Terrace Street and the street south of building No. 3 and 4 is Edwards Street.  The street running north and south on the east side of the map is Aylmer Road.  Have I got this correct?

What else can you tell us about the buildings or streets on this map.
