Governor Mark Sanford wants to blend in as he
goes through Air Force Reserve officer training the next two
weeks in Alabama.
But it might be hard for the
first lieutenant who is the only governor in the nation with
an active military obligation.
His two weeks of
classroom and drill time at Maxwell Air Force Base near
Montgomery, Alabama, begin at 5 a-m
Sunday.
Sanford says it will be a fascinating
time to be locked down on an Air Force base as the war plays
out in Iraq.
But Sanford says his training won't
keep him from handling the affairs of South Carolina. He says
he's only a couple of hours away if something happens that
requires him to be in South Carolina.
