Among the many BRAC decisions rendered by the commission last week are: realignment of the undergraduate navigator training at Randolph AFB, Tex., to NAS Pensacola, Fla.; closure of Wilford Hall Medical Center at Lackland AFB, Tex., with the creation of a new San Antonio Regional Medical Center, to be housed at Ft. Sam Houston, Tex.; merger of facility operations for Ft. Dix and the Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst in New Jersey under a central commander at McGuire AFB, N.J.; and closure of Brooks City-Base, Tex., relocating its Air Force Materiel Command units to Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio.
The last remaining T-1 Jayhawk at JBSA-Randolph, Texas, took its final flight to the "Boneyard" at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., on July 15. The 99th Flying Training Squadron will train pilots using T-6 and simulator until it gets T-7 Red Hawk in fiscal 2026.
