What’s your top CONUS duty stations for families?

San Antonio, TX. (Ft. Sam Houston)

I concur with MSG Gould. I spent 5 awesome years in San Antonio and loved every minute if it. The duty was great and the city is a lot of fun.

You won't find many enlisted soldiers that know about this gem and getting here as a specialist will be hard since there are only a few slots for junior soldiers (corrections, MP, and medical are the only MOSs I can think of off the top of my head.) Ft Leavenworth bills itself as the "Best Home Town in the Army" with good reason. I know a lot of Officers who came here as MAJs to attend CGSC and then returned after they retired because there are lots of jobs, the schools both on post and in the surrounding towns are outstanding and you are close enough to the big city to go there when you want.
