I had the honor of buying
blee256 his last meal before he went off to Basic Training here in SAT today.
We found out, via another thread, that we may be in SAT at the same time.
It just so happened that I was commuting into SAT early today and he was coming in on a flight from LAX with his yellow envelope in hand. (Those of you who have flown flights to SAT are aware of all the young guys & gals coming in with their "yellow envelopes").
I knew Brian from flight school... but probably haven't actually seen him in person for well over a year. So it was really cool to meet up with him again... and especially cool to be able to buy him a decent meal with some nice Flan for dessert before his 6+ weeks of hell.
His words... "I wouldn't have believed that the last person I'd talk to before going to basic would have been you Bob..."
He's in for a long night! I'm sure he won't be posting for a while on here either...
Good luck Brian!
Bob
