Christie Durr in a rabbit costume, Minot AFB

Perhaps it was for Easter of 1978, just before I left Minot in June; or it could have been for Halloween of 1977.  But Debbie had made a rabbit costume for Christie, and she wore it over to my BOQ room.
 
This was the room at the end of the first floor hallway, with its own separate living room, kitchen (which Christie is peeking out from in the lower right), bedroom, and bathroom.  I may not have even lived in those quarters for a year before I left for Colorado Springs.
 
The two pictures on the left side depict my stereo system with the Dahlquist DQ-10A speakers.  The lower right picture shows my Sony Trinatron color TV, and my Sony portable B&W TV that I bought to watch a Rams Monday Night Football game on the way out to alert one fall (unfortunately, the small antenna did not work to pick up anything).
 
Also note the gold drapes and the burnt red carpet.  They were new a year or so before and replaced the previous damaged drapes and soiled and worn carpet.  Unfortunately, the redish-orange carpets in our rooms did not come bound, so they frayed almost immediately.  The drapes also showed up unhemmed, which we had to get hemmed in the weeks that followed their hasty arrival.
