Rod FontenetteGUEST
So residency trained, uh, in emergency medicine, um, retired from the Air Force, the 21 years active duty Air Force.
Rod FontenetteGUEST
I came in actually as a jet engine mechanic through basic training in the Air Force and good old Lackland Air Force Base many, many, many, many years ago fixing jet engines because they told me they had no medical jobs available for me.
Rod FontenetteGUEST
But they told me that just like physicians roll around in chairs in exam rooms, I'll be doing the exact same things.
Rod FontenetteGUEST
I'll just be doing it underneath the jet engine.
Rod FontenetteGUEST
I loved it a lot.
Rod FontenetteGUEST
I actually learned a ton about how from the operational side of the Air Force.
Rod FontenetteGUEST
And then I cross-trained and became a medic in Lackland Air Force Base in Wolford Hall.
Rod FontenetteGUEST
I did that for two years.

However, military officials, they emphasize that a bird strike has not been confirmed and investigators are still working to determine exactly what caused the aircraft to go down.

The F-16 was one of several aircraft from Joint Base San Antonio Lackland in Texas participating in the Michigan training exercise.

In February of 69, I did a delayed enlistment and then in April went in.

But I'd been at Western Illinois for, well, two semesters and left there and went into basic training down at Lackland.
Scotty ActonGUEST
And then from Lackland on up to Denver to Lowry Air Force Base for supply training.
GregHOST
Was it, um, at that time, was it hard to get in the air force or Navy? I know a lot of guys were flooding in there and so some guys couldn't get
Scotty ActonGUEST
in.
Rob HarrisonGUEST
Yep.
Rob HarrisonGUEST
In San Antonio, Texas, there's a place called Lackland Air Force Base.

And that is that's where Air Force basic military training takes place.
Carol LeeHOST
All right.
Tony StoryGUEST
And the, and this master sergeant went through my package and said, "Well, the issue's gonna be when he turns 19." I believe the issue at that point was you had to be 19 to go to the MP MOS school at, at, at whatever Air Force base.
Tony StoryGUEST
I think it was Lackland Air Force Base or Fort McClellan, Alabama You had to be 19 years old either when you started the academy, the police, police training, or you had to be 19 before you graduated.
Tony StoryGUEST
It was, there was some caveat, and I'm not sure which one it was.
Tony StoryGUEST
And my recruiter told me, "So I can still put you in on that program, but the problem is, what are they gonna do with you until you turn 19?" He said, "And, 'cause you turn 19 in this month, you could be waiting for six months to a year before you even start your training." And he says, "That's, that's a long time for the Marine Corps to fuck with you.
Jeff CrudeleHOST
It's dated June 11, 1953.
Jeff CrudeleHOST
It was early on, when West was 29 years old and he was still chief of psychiatry at Lackland Air Force Base.
Jeff CrudeleHOST
He writes to this man that he had never met, and he, for whatever reason, lays out what he is proposing to do.
Jeff CrudeleHOST
If I could sum it up in a single line, it would be drugs combined with hypnosis.
Don WinnerGUEST
Just enlisted, graduated in June.
Don WinnerGUEST
By September, I was in Lackland Air Force Base in basic training.
Don WinnerGUEST
And then I spent 20 years in the military.
Don WinnerGUEST
So it was really broken up into several phases throughout the 20-year career.
Tony KennettHOST
Guys, there's a lot to talk about tonight, this September 17th, Thursday, and we're going to get through as much of it as possible.
Tony KennettHOST
So first of all, before we even get to the Karen Bass story on the F-16 crash in Michigan, The Texas Air National Guard issued a statement confirming that the F-16 Fighting Falcon that crashed in Blair Township near Traverse City in Michigan belonged to the 149th Fighter Wing based at Joint Base San Antonio Lackland and was conducting routine training in the Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center.
Tony KennettHOST
Also adding that the pilot successfully ejected from the aircraft.
Tony KennettHOST
So that incident currently under investigation.
DJ PetrovskyHOST
But I want to be precise about what Wild Bill actually did in the military, because I feel like it's very important to establish his credentials before we start diving into some of the claims that he makes regarding our very own U.S. government.
DJ PetrovskyHOST
From his book, Behold a Pale Horse, he describes himself as a skinny kid who went to basic training at Lackland Air Force Base.
DJ PetrovskyHOST
He would then go to the New Dralic School.
DJ PetrovskyHOST
at Amarillo, and he would move on to the 495th Bomb Division, working B-52s, KC-135s, and Minuteman missiles under a secret clearance.
