Yep you got the last word in BUFF wrong. I was in SAC stationed at McConnell in the early 70's. We were a Titan II ICBM and KC135 wing. I was a communications repair technician. We maintained the Launch Alert System for 18 missile sites and the base command post. Dull. Got out after 4.

I know, I just don't use words like that. :) Dear Hubby was a Nav, Nav/Bombardier, then a B-1 OSO. We saw, Mather, Castle, Loring, Dyess, Ellsworth and got out after Gulf War 1. We had some good friends (guys) that were Missilliers (I think the correct term was Missile Pukes); they were at Minot and the Forks. I'm surprised you thought command post was dull! It sounds like you were in when morale was at an all time low (Jimmy Carter as Prez would do it!) We had a good time; mostly.

It was fun chatting with you today about dogs and boats!
