Tom and Tim and the Minot AFB BOQ, circa 1975-6

The top picture is of Tom Brundige in his BOQ room, which, in the bottom picture would be just out of frame toward the photographer.  He was at the very end, just before the exit.  Originally, the guy who lived in that room was Eugene Cheeks, who was in my squadron.  Larry Dowling, the third T-33 pilot in the BOQ lived just across the hall from Tom. 

The reason Tom is laughing is that the previous photograph that I took, which I must have given to him, was him in the same position, but with his right arm folded up and over his head, in a forlorn pose.

The bottom photograph is of Tim McConnell standing outside the BOQ at sunset.
