Bostic Hog Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I served in the USAF from 87-93. I was a 208 -- linguist. Went to DLI for German / Russian -- then the cold war ended and we no longer had a need for German linguists. Seeing as my wife at the time was an Arabic linguist, I followed in her footsteps and studied Arabic at DLI. Then on to UAE. I flew on a C-130, Compass Call -- electronic combat Now I'm an auditor in public accounting -- not much Arabic practice. By the way, MIA, you were at Goodfellow? All linguists (most anyway) went there for advanced language training. Did you ever eat at Zentner's Daughter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no I never ate at Zentner's Daughter. I do remember the chow hall or as the Air Force calls it "The dining facility" was very good, especially coming out of Army basic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
