San Antionio Texas
Biloxi MS
Oklahoma City OK
Suwon South Korea
Japan, Thailand, Phillipines, Guam
Anchorage AK
Great Falls MT
Rapid City SD
Spangdahlem Germany... and visited everywhere Europe (twice) (c:]
Rwanda (for the refugee crisis in 1994)
Cheyenne WY
Colorado Springs CO
Omaha NE
and for now, Middle Georgia...
I wonder and am anxious to see where this journey takes me next!

Wow, that's a heck of a ride. Even though your recruiter lied to you, it seems you've liked the journey. Congrats on your 23rd!

Thanks Kevin! I could have retired 3 years ago... so yes I still love it! (c:]
Not sure if I'll do another 7 or not... but one of these days I need to figure out what I want to be when I grow up! LOL

What - when the recruiter promised lots of T&A you didn't think he meant Travel and Adventure?
Congrats on your anniversary.

That's quite an accomplishment and I thank you for your service. I have a nephew flying F-16's in Spangdahlem. Just like you, he is still trying to figure out what to do when he grows up. As far as I'm concerned he was already there.

Congrats to you too and good luck on the outside! :twothumbs I'm not ready to throw in my hat just yet - I'm finally getting good pay and see no reason to give it up! Besides, I'm shooting for 75%. :bananna2:

I was in Guam from 85-87 I really miss there got to go diving everyday. :secret: I think you really need to request a tour to the rock (shemya). It really makes you enjoy everywhere else you can go.
