Just noticed San Antonio, TX on your profile to the left.  Visited there for 6 miserable weeks @ 15 years ago for basic training at Lackland AFB.  I heard the town was nice, I just didn't get to enjoy it!

Born and raised south of Montgomery. Been with the Air Force since 88 and currently stationed in San Antonio, among a bunch of aggie fans...yuk.

San Antonio is a great town though.  Lot's of good folks around as well. Everywhere I have been I have found that 90% of the people are good.  Still, its not God's Country:D

That means you and I were at Lackland the same year!  I was there May- June 1988, the 3906th if I remember correctly.  I went on to Goodfellow AFB in San Angelo for Intel training, then two years in the AF.  Got bored w/ the AF and switched to the Army (Mechanized Infantry).  Got real tired of living in the field and two years after that I got a Intel slot in the Special Forces.  Was the best of both worlds!  Got out in 1994.

My first three car wrecks all had two things in common- I was at fault and Steely Dan was on the stereo. Seriously, when he comes on in my car I turn the station. Not that I'm supersticious or anything.... (knocking on wood)

Recon7-

Likely we were there together.  I went through basic that summer as well.  I think I was in the the 3704 or the 3407, its all a blur to me:)  I went off to be a bomb stacker and a missile mover. Got tired of that not too long ago and got a job in the Intel world.

Coach fraud, coach "ran", coach franochio, TCHAD, etc...

Tumor-


There wasn t anything coed about the squadron I was in, not that I might have enjoyed that if it was:D

Hey recon7 I was in USAF basic in Jan of '82 and I only had to go 5 weeks! :)

It was a strange time when I was there...they stopped Honor Flight for 1 week so we didn't have to march around and compete at all. That left us with a lot of free time. Base lib and a week of town access.

I always thought basic was a joke anyway. Worked up to 15 pushups 25 jumping jacks 25 situps and running in a group for  1 1/4 mile in 14 minutes.

I actually got OUT of shape in basic..gained 10 lbs.
I have been reborn a new man!

Notice I never said a better man.

Amen to that Ammo!  Was probably good that they only gave us 5 minutes to eat that slop!  Saw my drill instructor on 20 / 20 a few years ago.  He was yelling at juveniles at one of those "basic training" delinquent facilities.  I think I had nightmares that night...
