Interesting! I've already posted my information in post # 6 but, in reading through all the responses, it appears that no one else took their AF basic training at Amarillo. I thought that place looked pretty desolate when I was there.

Due to a meningitis outbreak at Lackland AFB, Amarillo AFB was used for basic training for a short period of time from February 1966 through December 1968. There are a lot of class pictures here: USAF BMT Flight Photos - 1966

A lot of neat Amarillo AFB photos here: AMARILLO AIR FORCE BASE
