Yea I did both basic and AIT there in 83. Got there in May, and having grown up in Canada it was the hottest place I had ever experienced. The DIs loved to make us do pushups on the pavement. It was so hot our hands blistered. Anyone who has been there might remember a little wide spot in the road just south of the Fort called Buckyrus. There was a little gas station/ liquor store right beside the road. My wife parents owned and ran it for years.
