~The FReeper Canteen Presents~

Road Trip: Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida

Tyndall Air Force Base is a United States Air Force Base located 12 miles east of Panama City, Florida. The base was named in honor of World War I pilot 1st Lt Frank Benjamin Tyndall. The base operating unit and host wing is the 325th Fighter Wing (325 FW) of the Air Combat Command (ACC). The base is delineated as a census-designated place and had a resident population of 2,994 at the 2010 census.

The 325th Fighter Wing’s primary mission is to provide a combat ready air dominance force, train F-22A Raptor pilots and maintenance personnel, and train air battle managers to support the combat Air Force. Tyndall's combat mission is performed by the 95th Fighter Squadron. Training for F-22 pilots is performed in the 43d Fighter Squadron and the 2d Fighter Training Squadron. The 325th Air Control Squadron trains air battle managers for assignment to combat Air Force units.

Headquarters, First Air Force at Tyndall is part of the Air Combat Command (ACC), ensuring the air sovereignty and air defense of the continental United States. As the CONUS geographical component of the bi-national North American Aerospace Defense Command and air component of United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM), 1 AF also provides airspace surveillance and control and directs all air sovereignty activities for the continental United States.

The 21st century proved to be momentous for Tyndall AFB. The base was selected as the first home of the Air Force's newest aircraft, the F-22 Raptor. 2002 brought more change as the Chief of Staff of the Air Force changed the organizational structure of the 325th Fighter Wing, from an objective type wing to a combat organization. This organization moved all maintenance activities under the 325th Maintenance Group and all support activities under the 325th Mission Support Group.

Good evening, Radu! Only a short visit this evening. We are still recuperating - it will probably take a couple more days.

LOL! If you can recuperate in a couple of days, you’re made of stout stuff. Y’all were BUSY last week, and with all the excitement of the wedding day, that’s enough to take the stuffing out of anyone.

Enjoyed “meeting” the bride and groom last night. What a beautiful couple they are.

This morning’s white-out conditions prevented me from signing my house offer, but I will try again tomorrow.

The heat went out on the second floor, and i was afraid pipes would burst, so I had oil guys here all day and it turned out to be a cracked thermostat. So, in between shoveling and running up and down from the basement to the second floor, I am exhausted. Lynn-Dah loves it, as it is fluffy.

I shoveled 4 times today, trying to stay ahead of the snow, but there are still a few inches out there that have to be removed tomorrow morning before I head out, injured my knee, and strained my back. But I DO plan on singing tomorrow night.

It’s Therapy.
