From Eiríkur Thorvaldsson
On your web side for H-3 in Iceland in that old good days you ask about a
picture of me and me and family. As Sigrjón have mailed -is my name Eirikur
Thorvaldsson but I was always called "Eddie" and worked at the milk plant
(dairy) in Hřfn. I'm Valdi´s oldest son.Im now 59 years (about 20 on that
picture) Since 1978 I have been working as director of the milk company in Faroe
Islands (www.mbm.fo). All
barracks/buildings on Stokksnes are gone now. Just one automatic radar is left.
My dad is still going strong (76) - here is picture of him taken in august this
year

Thank you for the information. With your permission, I will add
your e-mail to the "Mail Bag" page and update the notes on the picture. I will
also post Valdi's picture. When you talk to him, tell him he still looks like he
just stepped out of the Search Tower after working on the heating system. (That
is one of my memories from H-3. There was a problem in the steam lines and a
couple of his crew were not able to get the pipe to loosen in spite of a couple
of them trying to get on the wrench. Valdi came in and he, by himself, gave the
wrench a pull. His muscles were straining but he freed the pipe. He was one
STRONG man and a GREAT person.)
You may not remember me but I was your guest at your house when the picture was
taken. I seem to recall lace curtains hanging on the windows. I do recall the
hospitality you, your wife and young daughter extended to me. Now 38 years
later, let me say Thank You.

That's ok.(you may rewrite it because of my bad english.LOL)

you
