Back in the 70s/80s the planes would come in to collect the weed and there would be clashes with soldiers! Later, they 'bombed' the strip so planes couldn't land no more. One summer we went camping at Garvey Maceo school just above (and to the right of) the strip. Nicest time ever!!! I remember there was a crashed plane at the strip and we snuck out to see it! So cool!
