I believe that it is a key strategic location for our forces over there. The only other options that we could have used an airbase in either Afghanistan (KAF) or Pakistan as a Transit center. Obviously, those wouldn't have been great choices.
On another note: SSG P., did you take that picture of the KC-135 getting deiced? That's a great picture!!!

Both and in a good way and bad way, it is helping the economy over there, but hurting us with all the budget cuts we are already having to deal with related to alleged waste.

I agree it helps and hurts us, for what I understand it will be close sometime 2014, local government won't renew the lease.
