Actually I don't think we're too far apart in the general view, just ironing out small things.

So, who did you get to close down? It was really sad to see 2AD prove itself in the Gulf, only to come home to be deactivated as its reward.

I was at Nellis AFB, Las Vegas, NV...the base that will never close. I went through the closing of an active Fighter Wing (474th TFW) back in the mid-80's, but was out under the SSB when they gutted the Air Force. I was a jet engine mechanic, and was told I could take the offer, cross-train to cook, or wait a year and quite likely get booted out with nothing more than a "thank you goodbye."
