Ellsworth AFB, from December 2000 to August 2003. At the time, it felt like I'd never leave, so I got out of the Air Force and came back in after getting Scott. Of course now, I've been at Andersen AFB since June 2006, and as of April, Guam will have been my longest assignment.

Never go to Guam. It seems nice at first, but leadership is determined to ensure that you only achieve a certain maximum level of happiness before they beat you back down.

Nellis AFB, Las Vegas was my first base. I loved the area. So much to do there.

Pease AFB, New Hampshire. I loved going to the NH, Mass, and Maine beaches and watching the Red Sox play at Fenway! The New Hampshire winters? Not so much. They were too cold and snowy for me.

Well, first Duty Station after basic and Tech School was Dyess AFB in TX. Was there from Sept. 1978 to Nov. 1981. Was in Aircraft Maint. at first on the B-52D working on the bombing computers and Radar system. All in all it was a good tour, just a long time at a base that was so far from the bigger towns. Some of the ice storms that we had during my time there were pretty harsh.

Scott A.F.B. Il. Liked the base and of course St. Louis was just up the road. Quiet area out in the corn fields.........Kinda like McGuire A.F.B. N.J.!

My first duty station was in 1993 was RAF Mildenhall before the gated up and secured the dorms and clubs. As a single airman I had a blast the job was easy lots to see and do and made so many friends. I really hated to go and still to this day it is my favorite duty assignment. definitely better than the politically corrupt Scott AFB. Yuck!

Ellsworth AFB November 2005 - February 2007
If you love hunting and fishing, then it's an amazing place to be! it does snow more often then not, but after awhile you just climatize and get used to it. i would like to go back someday to finish up my career.

Robins AFB was my first duty station. Hated it at first, but learned to love it. I'm at Grand Forks now. It's too MF cold up here. I can't wait to get out of here!!
