Aiming_Cir-1.JPGHoneycutt Road148 viewsIn the background, Bldg 5676, Allin Hall, formerly the BOQ, opened in October, 1965. The "twin tower", Bldg 5678, Aultman Hall, was opened shortly after. Both BOQs are now "hotels".
Remember Honeycutt Road? That's where you learned how to "lay the battery" with an M2 Aiming Circle. This area will become a parking lot for a new elementary school to replace the very old Geronimo school. I guess that's just "SADULU" for the old training site on the prominent ridge line of Honeycutt Road.
