AB Lindstamer's Dad visits him at Sheppard AFB
After I graduated from basic training, the Air Force sent me to Sheppard AFB
near Wichita Falls, Texas. I arrived here on February 24th, 2003 and
will be attending technical training to learn my Air Force job. At the
beginning there was still quite a lot of restrictions, but not as many as in
basic. On March 24th some of the restrictions were lifted and I was
allowed to wear civilian clothes again and drive my car. Of course all
these items were still in Colorado Springs, so I asked my Dad to bring them to
me, which he did the weekend of March 28th to the 31st.
