I was stationed at Naval Air Facility (yes Air Facility, before it was an Air Station) from November 1980 to November 1983, flying H-53's with the VOD Squad of VR-24 to ships and fields throughout the Med. I lived off base in San Gregorio, then Motta (up \Dump Road\). Too many wonderful memories to put here. My last visit was 2001 when I ferried an aircraft from Cairo to Andrews AFB. I could barely recognize the place from the development that occurred over the years - on both bases, NAS 1 and NAS 2. Some great memories in the Fly Trap (NAS 2) and Santo's Place in the BOQ on NAS 1. Finally, I hope to catch an AMC flight there someday and spend a week in Taormina. If you've been there you know what I mean.

Was stationed at Naval air facility (NAF) Sigonella from 74-76 barracks was located on NAF1. And i worked at GSE on NAF2. I was 18yrs old from NYC and sunny Sig was the best. Had my own place in Catania and got around in a old Fiat 500. Outstanding first tour of duty straight from A-school. Wonderful memories. H.Capella CPO USN Ret.
My husband and I were stationed there for 3yrs. And our stay was amazing. Our son was born there and that added even more beauty to our living there. I miss being in this area. Perhaps one day my family and I will visit one day.
I’m John Beckman & my family & I were stationed here at Sigonella with HC-4 SIG which was a naval helicopter squadron created at NAS Sigonella for the CH-53E Super Stallion helicopter! The people, the food, & the country were the best you could ask for when stationed overseas!! My whole family loved this place very much! I’m now medically retired but wish to some day bring my family back here to enjoy everything it offered again!! What an a amazing experience it was!! Stationed there when our squadron had Initially Operating Capability (IOC) on 13 December 1983 for 2 years! Sicily was a beautiful country & we, as a family, enjoyed many rides throughout Sicily!
Was stationed there from 94-96. Was my first station. Was with HC-4. I was 19, from small town in Texas and was glad to be seeing the world . Loved Sicily
