Where were you born?

This is a fun survey to get an idea of how diverse we are as a service. Different regions of the US have different cultures and traditions, different speech patterns. However, it is interesting how much we grow as a person and service member when we are exposed to the world and other's views. So where do you come from?

Born in KY, lived in TN AND the great state of Alabama. Lived in Orlando, Denver and El Paso too plus Korea and Germany for 35 years then moved back home to watch over Mom & Dad, he's 83 this year and Mom is 82. They both walk at the Church Family Life Center every day and even spend some time on the elliptical machine. Plus, I had been told I had less than a year to live with the pancreatic cancer diagnosis. I had The Whipple Procedure (Google that one!) plus 6 months of 24/7 chemo. Worked until the last month and was sick as a dog. After they are gone we'll move back to TN for a few years but will then retire to Estes Park, CO. Imagine Gatlinburg on steroids....

I'm from Southeast Tennessee; but always hated it there. I felt much more "at home" when I was stationed in Colorado (Buckley AFB). In regards to your point on how it is "interesting how we grow as a person when exposed to other parts of the world", it couldn't be more true. I'm stationed in Bahrain, (Ramadan is in full effect) and it's definitely opened my eyes to how different the day to day routine is vs life in America.

I lived in the sticks of Louisiana (you won't even find it on a map, L'Anse Grise) until 4th grade then lived in Houston (attending school in 5th ward) until I enlisted. Talk about experience in extremes.

A long time ago, a Lobsterman from Maine met a sharecropper's daughter from Tennessee. Their kid joined the Airborne, married a preacher's daughter, and they moved into the back-room of a pizza parlor...I'm the result.
