Where and when did you attend AIT, and have you ever been back there?

Ft Gordon D-2-1, July 82-Oct 82... O5C....Radio Teletype School, nope have not revisited, yet.

I attended the Electrical Power Generation and Repairer's Course (Then 52B) at Ft. Belvoir VA. in 1976. While I've been back to Ft. Belvoir a few times after the Engineer School had relocated, many of the building and stand sites still remained. Some things change, and some are reutilized.

Also attended a Reserve School AIT for a MOS Reclass at Ft Indian Town Gap, Seems some things there had remained fairly static as well structure wise.

I had AIT at Ft. Lee in 1968-69 which I hated. The smell was suffocating from some chemical plants in the area and if the wind was blowing in our direction it was unbearable. Plus as a 19-year old soldier (at the time) we would go to Richmond on the week ends for a littlr R & R but at that time Richmond was in a dry county so there were no bars as we know it now. There were only clubs and you had to stop by a state store and buy your booze by the bottle and take it with you to the club. Needless to say it wasn't very hard to pick up women. When I finished AIT at Ft. Lee, our entire class received orders for Vietnam. But when I got there, the CO of the unit where I went in DaNang told me that there was no need for my MOS so they converted me to an MP where our duties were escorting convoys. Imagine that!!!!! The only thing I got out of AIT was an automatic promotion to SP4. So I went from an E1 to a SP4. Oh to be able tp go back and do things over. Basic at Ft. Benning and then Ft. Lee. WOW!!!! What a trip.

Fort Lee, Virginia 1980.
Never thought I would see a fast food restaurant on any Post

I attended AIT at Ft Bliss, TX in 1984. Looking for anyone who was there in late 1984, early 1985.

Ft. Polk, La June 1974. Infantry AIT, They called it little Viet Nam at the time. I have never been back.

Army: Fort Eustis, AIT 1977, returned for a visit out of curiosity in 1992, hardly recognized the place.

Air Force:
Keesler AFB, first visit, while father was there TDY in 1965, I was 6 yrs old.
14 years later, 1979, I was back, prior service, for AIT. The hotel we stayed at in 1965, was now a mall, and Hurricane Camille (1969) had destroyed the mini-amusement park on the beach, it was now a ghostly wreck out in the water, the remains of the rusting roller coaster rising out of the water during high tide. But the base child care center still stood, with the wooden train carved & painted on the front that I remembered from my childhood visit, and my own daughter, just 11 months old, stayed there while I was at classes (being prior service, I didn't live in barracks with the new recruits).
Fast Forward to 2002, now a disabled veteran, my husband & I traveled to Florida, & on the way, we stopped & spent the night in Biloxi. Went on base at Keesler, and found I recognized a fair amount of the base still.

Altus AFB: Flight Engineer School 1983-84, went back a couple times over the years later flying; & mid-2000s for a visit, faces had changed, but much else, stayed much as I remembered.

Ft. Huachuca July 09 - March 2010.
