I was stationed at Wheelus Air Force Base, Tripoli, Libya from October, 1962-March, 1964 and in late December, 1963, Bob Hope's tour arrived at Wheelus. I have the base newspaper from that week and am fairly sure that it was December 28th. Appearing on the show were the following: Bop Hope, Les Brown, Tuesday Weld, Miss America(Anita Bryant), ? Bubbles, a tap dancer, and Les Brown's band. Maybe one more star was present, but I would have to get my newspaper out of storage to confirm this. My squad was marched from one side of the base to the other to catch the show which occurred on a Saturday morning. Being an isolated air base, with very, very few females on base, it was a delight to see the Women. Bruce Christensen, 2106 Putnam Lane, Mt.
