| Aaron Mills Williston, FL | I am looking for information, photos, maps, etc. on the Montbook Army Airfield.
It was located approx, 2 miles SW of Williston, FL at what is now designated as Williston Municipal Airport X60. I am wishing to compile a small history reference book about this airport. Any information you could provide, and/or references would be greatly apreciated. Thank You. Aaron Mills 08/07/2000 @ 07:46 [ref: 578] |
