BTW, Art, I graduated from Aviation Cadet Class 54H at Webb AFB (Big
Spring). FWIW the wash-out rate of 54H at BGS was 47%.

But when we add up the wash-out rates from day one physicals and tests then
add basic training, CTD, Classification then flying schools, the total has to
be well over 95%. Many are called few are chosen. Do you know why they called
it BIg Spring? Because there was no water. It was down the road from Swee****er
where the water was all alkali.
