Thomas Mack Wilhoite – some pictures

Well, after all this activity in the past few days, I just had to jump in!!

I remember passing SidiYahia on the way to school in our packed bus. At times there were mobs carrying red flags, and it was fairly scary. Can’t imagine living there. Remember the Arab that always rode in the back of the bus? I was at Sidi Slimane and attended Wilhoite in the Spring of 1958 after moving from Ben Guerer AFB. Would have graduated in 1959 if I had used the good sense I was born with, but I opted to go to work at the BX. Thought the long ride every day to Wilhoite was a waste of time, I guess…

My biggest memory of school was the daily slaughtering of the pig. Does anyone remember that? Also, I skipped school (the only time in my life!) to go study at the base library and got caught and in trouble. Seems like I was with another girl … maybe Lynn (can’t remember her last name)

I have lots of good pictures that I will share as soon as I can find them We just moved to NC this July and most of our belongings are in storage, since we are in the process of completing the building of our home.. Anyway, I have pictures from a dance on Sidi Slimane and about ten of us in formals, also a school picture (1958 seniors?) with the class sitting on bleachers and some others.

Remember Sandy Spies, DeAnn and Colleen very well. Do hope we can all get together next year.
