A community cookbook, with recipes attributed, from the airmen and airmen's spouses living at Patrick Air Force. Patrick AFB is a significant location in the history of the American space program, and 1963 just two years after the first manned space flight (Gagarin), and the first human-piloted space flight (Shephard). Patrick Air Force, base is now Space Launch 45, "the premier launch delta of the United States Space Force." Thor and Atlas Missiles, as well as the Titan Booster, were the stock in trade of PAFB from the time of this cookbook through the 1980s.
