I'm on orders and am going to this Battalion, I may not be able to change the future but am curious what I'm getting myself into.

I was stationed at Lewis back in the 90's and loved it. There are some sketchy areas around post, as there are around any military base; but overall I really like the base. There are some great hiking trails and lots to do outside for sure.

SGT Otto Rabe, What you are going through is quite normal concern whenever it is time to PCS. That is the beauty of being able to moved specially if your last unit gave you a bad experience. The key ingredients to a successful military career is to focus on things you can change and have control over. Train your Soldiers and always lead from the front. Be flexible and adapt to any changes regardless where you are stationed. Good luck on all your future endeavors.
