I have the option to go to fort Bragg or to Alaska? which station should I choose, I am a 25B. which would be more fun, less restricting(on leave), have more freedom to do things. I don't want to be at a unit that has nagging sergeants all the time or constantly having to do infantry work as a 25B. I don't mind PT or having to do PT standards like infantry men because I'm fit...I just don't want to have to do jobs like them. I want to be a 25B in a relaxed environment. haha I'm sure there is no avoiding motor pool Mondays so I don't care about that I just want to make the best decision here. Any advice would be great. I also hear people who have Bragg have little to no weekend times and you can lose your family being stationed there because of people saying work is never done. Please help.

You can hunt and fish at both locations, it's just different. I'd give Alaska the win on that.
If you want to be in the SE, Ft Bragg wins there.
It's likely easier to reach most any place on leave cheaper and quicker from Bragg.
If by freedom, you mean evenings and weekends off, even tie.
Bragg would provide more opportunities to take advantage of some trips during 4 day weekends, than Alaska. Neither will likely be less restrictive on leave.
SGTs don't run around nagging at either location, and nobody here can predict the attitude and command climate at any unit you may be assigned to. We can predict, however, that a Soldier who perceives SGTs as running around nagging, may strongly want to consider adjusting that attitude. I'm uncertain. It's unclear what you mean by "infantry work," so it's difficult to respond to that. If by infantry work, you mean field training and associated work (i.e. constructing a fighting position, guard duty, ........)
Each post may have weekend duty requirements, and you can lose your family anywhere.
