While I was in the Navy 77-83, I spent a week at AFIP for special stain
course they had. I got to meet Lee Luna, but did not get to spend a lot
of time with the man. However, my most memorable trip to AFIP was when I
was stationed at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland
(the old center). 
I was sent to AFIP with a box of specimens to deliver to one of the labs
and my duty driver got lost. I had read the manifest of the contents and
when the driver asked me if I had any idea of where were, I said "No"
and then followed up with this statement. "You mean to tell me that we
have five brains in this car and we can't figure out where we are?" Yep,
I was delivering three brains from an air crash accident for study. My
duty driver could not wait to get rid of the box.

 Sad that is where I went thru Histology Training at the Tri-Service
School of Histotechnology in 1985.  I was in a class of 10 Air Force
guys and I was Navy and there was one other Navy guy.  I was the only
female in my class.  It was interesting and have been doing Histology
non-stop since then- wow 25+ years has gone by fast.
