    Ross, Chuck Tower -- Retired USAF -- member Chester Hose Co. Chester, Ct. That is one base I never made it to in my 20 year career. Was stationed at Bergstrom (now Bergstrom International Airport, Austin, Tx.) Oldman said that Sheppard is where the Lord would stick Tx. if it needed an enema--well that may be true for Tx, however if the Lord were to give the US an enema he would stick it in Biloxi, Miss. or more precesiely---Keesler AFB. I spent way to much time in that base.

    Anyway, as a retired USAF E-6 I want to say thank to you and your comrades for serving our great Nation. Without you and the people you teach and watch over--our nation could well be speaking Arabic. Thanks for your service and when the time comes---you will (I know I am) enjoy retirement.

    Howdy, I was in the navy as a seabee welder. I just got certified as an emt-b here in pa and I am now going thru fire academy training. I was thinking of going back into the navy maybe as a corpsman or maybe looking into the nursing program.
