I graduated from pilot training in class 70-04 at Webb AFB, Big Spring, TX in December 1969.  Following survival school and C-7 training at Dyess,  I was assigned to the 536th TAS at Vung Tau and arrived in April 1970.  We moved to Cam Ranh Bay in July 1970.  I went with a group of about 13 Second Lieutenants.  On our return to the states in April 1971, I was fortunate to be assigned as a C-7 instructor in the 18th TATS at Dyess AFB, Abilene, Texas.  There was one other of my original group (Tom Adams) who was also assigned as a Caribou instructor.  Another (John Wolfe) became a T-37 instructor and would you believe all of the other 10 received KC-135 or B-52 assignments!  I checked out as a Caribou instructor in July 1971 and remained there until the squadron closed in/around September 1972.  I then went to Vance as a T-37 instructor, later went to C-130s at Dyess.  I also had too many tours at the helm of a BGD6-D (Big Grey Desk 6-Drawer) in auditing and logistics.  I retired in 1991 and am currently a T-37 simulator instructor at Vance.  So, if anyone is ever in the area, give me a call and we'll go for a simulated T-37 ride!
