I was at Tech School. I'd only been in the Air Force maybe 6 months. I was stationed at Brooks AFB in San Antonio. We got put on lock down for a week. We could not leave the dorm, not even for class. We basically sat around all day watching CNN. When we had to go to chow, we were escorted in a bus by 2 Humvee's with Mark 19's on them.
It was surreal. Nobody ever thought something like this would hit us at home.
