“So you want to be in Uncle Sam’s Air Force, do you? We will teach you how to walk, talk, and act like a real Air Force member. We will tell you when to eat and sleep. We will teach you how to make your bunk and put a spit-shine on them shoes and boots. If you are lucky, you will only have to go through this for six weeks. If not, I will set you so far back in time your grandmother will have labor pains.” -- Unknown TI In recent meetings in the Forum and the second reunion in July 2008, San Antonio, Texas was chosen as the select city for the Third Reunion.
