I'm in San Antonio at a writing
conference. We're staying on the Riverwalk, which is lovely.
Today I'm touring the Lakeland Air Force base as part of my writing
group, (Kiss of Death)'s pre-conference events. We pile onto the bus and head
out to the base by 6:30 AM and I am not a morning person, just give me coffee.
During the morning we will have a Special
Tactics mission briefing. We get to have lunch in the base food court with Special
Ops Instructors. There are four spec ops career fields trained at Lackland:
Combat Controller (the guys who call in air cover for the troops on the ground)
and Pararescue.
In the afternoon we get to visit
with the DCMT (Combat Medic Training at Fort Sam Houston - METC). That’s the
Army Combat Medics. It’s going to be an awesome day and we’ll see some cute
officers and learn a lot about the military.
