I was way down on the other end (by bridge that crossed hwy to the BX) in the 3723rd. I always thought the 3702 had the best plane out in front !

I didn't realize how may aircraft they have on display at LAFB until I went back for M60 Specialist training, but I have to agree we did have a cool plane parked out front. I really like the picture a page or two back with the B-52.

When I went back in 1995 for some school I can't remember, most of the planes that were in front of the squadron buildings had been removed, along with the planes that had been parked in the training areas (7&8?) Funny you mention M-60 School, I recently ran across my paperwork for when I got my M-60 Specialist SEI way back in 1986.

That would explain why I couldn't find my old BMTS building a month or so ago when I was trying to find it on Google Earth. Funny the things we remember and the things we forgot. I for one would have never recalled the training areas, but I can recall exactly how to get to Clothing and Sales from my barracks. I went through M-60 school in 1992 by accident, the Airmen we had slated got sick and they had to send someone. It boils down to I was in the wrong place at the perfect time. Fun school, and San Antonio does suck (if you recall the reference)?

Did LAFB have an SR-71 on static display back in the day? I can't remember if it was at Lackland or Lowery AFB.

There's one at Lackland now, it's been there since at least late '99.

It was there when I went through late '91.

Mine isn't there either. 3723 BMTS, Honor FLT 623 Stepped off the bus on 1 April 1988, graduated on fri 13 May 1988.

Thanks, I thought I was loosing my mind. I can recall static displays at both Lackland AFB and Lowery AFB, 1991 would be a couple of years after I would have seen it so that makes sense.

Have it scanned and email it to them. They sent me an email about two days after I emailed them mine thanking me for doing so and that they had posted it. I think it cost me $3.00 for a high resolution scan at Office Max.

Here is mine, 33 years ago this month. Man I feel old. Chances are, every one of these guys that made it a career are long retired.

All you youngsters with your BDU's, these were the real Air Force, blue and white name tapes and all!

We were the honor flight for our cycle, out of four flights. SSgt Pascuzzi was our TI, he was not in the photo, that is Sgt Martinez, our asst. TI. At 19, I was the second oldest guy in the flight. Oldest was 20. Most were 17 or 18. SSgt Pascuzzi was a red headed Italian, and looked like a bulldog. He had a red head temper to match.

Aww man, you can't talk about Pascuzzi like that. I'll tell him you said that when I see him next week haha. I talk to him all the time. He and my father pushed troops together at Lackland in the 3723 BMTS

Here is a pic of Pascuzzi and my father as MTI's at Lackland. My father pushed troops from '75-'81
