Members of the Southern Maine Squadron Sampson Air Force Base Veterans Association plan to meet at noon Tuesday, July 12, at the Governors Restaurant, 1185 Lisbon St. in Lewiston.

During the Korean War era, those who chose the Air Force went to Sampson AFB — located on the East Shore of Seneca Lake near Geneva, New York — for basic training before going on to tech schools, according to a news release from member Bob Sawyer Sampson.

Some of the veterans now gather monthly through the summer for lunch and to share stories. All veterans are welcome.

For more information, contact Sampson at 207-657-4909 or wwmtkwkr1933@gmail.com.
