This is a great document about the school. I am trying to track down info on my Father who attended a flight class 145 E at San Marcos Army Air Field in mid 1944. Raymond F. Elkhill is his name. I was hoping to find a classbook in here. If anyone has info or other sources that may be of help to me, please contact me at my yahoo email. It is mark.elkhill. Thanks~!
