Basic Training....

Oct. 4 1966 Ft. Ord, Ca. Got my draft notice from President LBJ on my 20th birthday. He was pulling 30,000 a month from Texas and California at the time. I didn't have a uniform until 3 weeks into boot camp. The Levis I wore in were it.

I almost felt young until I saw a younger dates. USAF 1972, Lakeland, AFB, Tech school Shepard AFB. Every weekend the same band played in the Airman's club, ZZ Tops and 3.2 beer. In 6 weeks it took a NYC street punk and turned me in to a young man, amazing talent those TI's had and yes they would kick the shit out of you if needed be!
