I was on something that ,at the time,was called"mobility."At
the time,I was in SAC.I was a recip(reciprocating)engine
mechanic.I had to keep a bag packed&another set of tools,in
the Alert Room.In the case of an alert,I had to be prepared
to go anyplace, in the world,that they sent me.I had to be ready
to get on any plane&go wherever it went.I therefore had to
have shots,for anyplace&a security clearance.They didn't ask,if
you would take the shots but you agreed to be on mobility.You also have to remember that this was 1961-1965&I was in,from
the age of 17-21.Just a dumb kid that did as he was told&believd
everything that he was told by the Govt!I saw a followup on the
news,last night.I didn't catch it all but I think that she was in the
Reserves. Irish
