    Congratulations. Good for you. I attended Brooks School of Aerospace Medicine for 6 weeks in San Antonio in the sixties. I hope you got to enjoy some of the wonderful restaurants there on your free time. I still miss the food there. Interesting place. Hope you got to see the Alamo too. I got to see it from the ground and the air.
