My first duty station was Kincheloe AFB MI, arrived in Dec 1970 after completing B-52 training, left in April 1975 to go to FB-111 crew training. Wasn't my first choice, but loved every minute there, well all the snow could get old, but if you like the outdoors it was fantastic!

Ha, that's funny, Grand Forks was my last duty station. Arrived there June 1988 and retired from there Nov 1993.

and still miss it don't you. I left GFAFB Nov of 74 and have only been back on it a couple of times. Sure looks different now.

I was sent to Chitose, Hokkaido, Japan for about 20 months. I really enjoyed it, except when it snowed without ceasing. But when it stopped, the skiing was fantastic.

Fortress Irwin CA. I’d requested FT Ord but it got BRACed after I did my preference sheet. CA is CA to Uncle Sam. July 1994 - Feb 1998. Good times...

first duty station was Eglin AFB. Not where I wanted, tried to swap with a guy who got Germany but didn't want to go but Uncle Sugar knows best. No idea what kind of base Eglin is because I was Red Horse and TDY 90% of the time. Spent most of my first tour at Shaw, Tyndall, McDIll, Langley, and various latin American countries plus a stint in Yellowknife Canada. My next tour was even better....Keflavic...
