Flight Training Completed 1947
I am looking for any information on my Grandad, Herbert Anderson Jones. I believe he completed his training at Lackland in 1947 based on the Army Air Forces logo I see in an old postcard from him. In the postcard he and 3 other men are standing around a T-6. He writes that he's standing with McNleollough sp? "a boy from NC," the flight instructor, and then McHens sp? "a boy from olk" which I am guessing means Oklahoma.
If anyone remembers him, he's from Florida, or think they recognize the other two possible names please let me know. Any info is appreciated! carolinecjones92@gmail.com

rooms
I could not believe the dorms that the guys have now in the Air Force. In Charleston they have a nice bed bathroom refrig and stove etc. All we had was a lousy mattress a small sink no bathroom except in hall or shower. They have it made now, wish I could do it over again like now. They redid the dorms from the 60s to like now, doors face outside. They have nothing to complain about. If anyone was stationed at Charleston AFB from jan 1966 to Sept 1967 please contact me I was a 70250 in the C-141 and 124 flight simulators. Thanks

Searching for photo
I am in search of my father's individual AF photo. I have never seen it, and he does not know what happened to it. My oldest son is named after him, and is currently at BMT at Lackland. I was hoping to make something special for the both of them. My father's name is Roger Sandy. He graduated BMT in October 1970, and was in 3711 Squadron Flight 1016. I was able to locate the squadron photo. Did they have a yearbook then with individual photos? Could anyone point me in the right direction? I would greatly appreciate any help!

Note: Yes, there were flight books and individual photographs taken in 1970, however, both may be hard to get hold of these days. We also had the "Home Town News Release" in 1970... you might try the newspaper from the town your father came into the Air Force from -- check the paper from the month (October 1970) and look through the "Announcements" section to see if an announcement was made over his graduation from BMT -- most newspapers also included the photos!
