My Dad was stationed at Lackland after being at Iraklion during the Cuban Missile Crisis. My twin sister and I were born on Lackland AFB in March 1964. We are just recently learning a lot about his experience on Iraklion. He and my Uncle Gary (former Marine in VIetnam)often talk about thing that happened or occured during their time. We are blessed they both returned safely to us and still are here to share history with their grandchildren. The funniest thing is his story about carrying LBJ’s rocker off the plane and a secret service agent told him to stop or be stopped. He says he had to change his uniform after the run in. This site is really interesting and informative for my sisters and I. THanks
I went through the 3723rd basic squadron in July, August and September of 1961 before being sent to Syracuse to become a Russian 203.
I went thru basic training starting in June, 1962 in the 3723rd BMTS. I don’t remember my Flight number(barracks). Gene Pitney had gone thru it a couple months before. Would like to hear from some of my old buddies.

Went through 3723rd Flight 1222 4 Aug-16 Sept 1969.Would like to hear from anyone who was there with us or sister squadron.Went to KTTC after basic AFSC 301X3 ECM.
I went through the 3723rd BMTS Flt 1603, Oct 61 – Dec 61. Our TI’s were TSgt Fleming and SSgt Hamparian, the area NCO was a TSgt Rodesta, the CO was a Capt. Wilson. I later went to med. school OSL (other side of Lackland) and then Brooks AFB for Flight Medicine…I retired in 1985 as an SMSgt. Coincidentally, I ran into TSgt Fleming at Orlando AFB and gave him his retirement physicial – every basic recruit’s dream…I have fond memories of that time – it was a great bunch of guys…
