Seriously. It started out as the San Angelo Air Corps Basic Flying Training School in 1940, redesignated as Goodfellow Field in 1941. After the establishment of the US Air Force in 1947 it was redesignated Goodfellow Air Force Base in 1948. It was a nice place to be stationed for awhile back in 1984. http://www.goodfellow.af.mil/Training_Wing/History/ho/docs/chrongdf.htm -- -Jeff B. zoomie at fastmail dot fm
