Doug The AP's hated everybody. They were bad bored and most didn't want to be AP's anyway. It was scary on a SAC base. Straight out of basic they would hand a one striper a loaded m-16 and give him a kill zone, anyone inside these strips, you shoot !!! We had to cross the ramp to get to the RAPCON and there were strips there. My trainer was walking out in uniform and stepped on a stripe. The marched him at gunpoint 1/4 mile to the only mud puddle, made him lay in it and put the dog on him! The dog was bored too.
