I loved Frank's Franks, especially the Chili Dogs.

I also miss Robin Hood Sandwiches, Anthony's Pizza and the AAFES Burger.

Nowadays, they have Subway, Panda Express and a Mexican Style fast food place at the PX at Fort Drum.

Wasn't much like that in the mid 80s either but Lackland did have an on base pizza joint called Air Express which actually was pretty decent.

When I would come home on leave I would hit up NAVSTA Newport which had a McDonald's on base and a Blimpie in the Exchange.

I enlisted in 83. Fort Hood had Robin Hood, Anthonies Pizza and Baskin Robbins and some other places too. I think Frank's started late 1980s.

I miss the little AAFES "shopettes" on Fort Hood back then. There was every couple of blocks. Small place with fast food on one side(burgers, burritos, fries etc.), tables, juke box and pool table in the middle, and on the other side the PX with beer, smokes, chips Magazines, shoe polish, shaving cream.....
