I am a 12T and am getting stationed at Ft. Hood in August. Do you have any insight on what I can expect?

Im so sorry James, be prepared for heat be prepared to be over worked, be prepared for things to not make much sense. Be prepared to prepare ahead of time because if you wait for the officers to make a call you will be behind the curve. Also take up fishing you will need to cool off at the lakes to center yourself.

Hot, hotter, and when you think it couldn't get any hotter it becomes a sunny hel-paradise.

You can expect it to be HOT. Damn Hot. Sorry. I couldn’t resist.

I was stationed there so long ago, my experiences are irrelevant. But we recently returned for a funeral and went to Shipley Donuts - had the Jalapeño Sausage Kolache. Most excellent.
