SPC Chappell, I'm in the same boat as you. Reclassing to 14E with a class date of 3 March. I'm married and currently living at Fort Sill so I'm wondering if I'll be forced on Meal Card. From what I've been told basically I'll report to pt/classes/formations but get to go home every night. I'd imagine its the same for others that are at the reclass barracks.

IS there anything to actually do during off time there at Sill? I have heard from people at my unit (they do happen to have a little bit of salty attitudes though) that Lawton is basically a dumping grounds of white trash. I want to enjoy my time there and find some nature type of stuff to do besides just hitting the gym and doing homework all of the time. Good luck on your recalls man and keep in touch on here, maybe we can link up when I get there. Always nice to have some friends when you get to a new place!

Its not exactly easy to up sell Fort Sill. It is what it is. Its not all bad though just depends what you are into. There is medicine park that has a wildlife refuge and plenty of hiking trails. They also hold occasionally fests there with live bands food and drinks. Theres a mall, imax movie theater, and plenty of pretty good places to go eat. You are also just an hour or so from witchita falls tx and oklahoma city. There is plenty to do up there. Im on week 4 of 14e transition so if you got any questions feel free to hit me up. Im not sure how to send direct messages on here or I'd shoot you my number.

Go to class, don't talk to the privates, do whatever you want the rest of the time.
