I know a shit load of dudes in that class. One was my roomate in Corpus. I went through Vance with another (AF type. Got C-17's to Hickam.) Several were in my primary squadron and I went to college with another one. He's gonna be flying Sierras out of Guam.
Small world...
Kumbaya... Where's my beer?

Small world that keeps getting smaller. Two of the flight docs in this pic are at Cherry Point with me. And speaking of magnetfreezer... I think I know excatly who you are talking about. I never made the connection until now. Hopefully I get to run into more of them later. I love the aviation community!
Who is Paul Levins?
The guy who taught API land survival.....the part where they take you out into the plant room and teach you to build a fire with sticks, and how to snare small woodland creatures. Possibly after your time, not sure
Yeah, I don't remember him. I did API in July 2000, he could have been there but I don't remember a whole lot of API.
Mr. Levins on why he didn't find it necessary to carry a water bottle as a child:
"If there was a bird bath in your yard, Paul Levins' face was in it"

Paul Levins sighting at Wal Mart
My friend and I walked into the walmart in lovely Milton, FL and spotted the man, the myth, the legend with his two young children. He was just finishing up some fresh and delicious subway sandwiches. I walked up to him while my friend stood back with his camera phone. After chatting for a few minutes, I got the impression he would not be down for a photo, so I aborted the Halmark opportunity. I regretted it instantly. And oh yes... he was wearing a camping back pack, most likely filled with murdering and trapping equipment.

That's because he wasn't in his element at Walmart. All this 'civilization' probably makes him cranky. Need to get him in his natural habitat, preferably while rigging a snare, or eating a monkey. I'm sure he's probably use to the 'National Geographic' style approach to photography, just make sure you are hiding in a bush and have some British commentator nearby.
