Where do people on White Cell live during NTC?

A posh resort hotel about 20 miles outside the gate. Kidding of course they stay in the barracks separated from the unit in training. That’s it, barracks and dining hall. In fact a tent may be in their cards depending on the size of the training package.

Everyone has the same posh living environment - tents. About 120 people per tent. Shared bathrooms, a couple kitchens that serve breakfast and dinner. About 5,000 people running around on the RUBA. For the white cell, your most broke people will count carts in the shoppette. Others will do KP, clean bathrooms, guard checkpoints, guard trash dumpsters, and generally clean up after grown ass adults who are too lazy to pick up after themselves.

I was the assistant mayor during the rotation that covid hit. Everyone left to the box and things were normal. When they returned, the RUBA was locked down. Nobody could go to the PX or Popeyes. The MPs were picking up anyone who left the RUBA

Has anyone been within the last year ?

In the Box!

I just want to know why you don’t just call them?

Where they tell you.

I hear Barstow is nice this time of year

White cell stays in the box, RUBA is off limits now as well as PX, Commissary; main post is fence in with check points
