Thought this would be a good place to find out where everyone is stationed around the world. Maybe get a chance to meet up and watch Hog games or just hang out with "like minded" people.

Ill start:

MCAS Beaufort SC

Hogville prediction formula:

1.  Insert bad news prediction. A loss, a recruit going elsewhere, a coach leaving, etc.
2.  Tag "hope I'm wrong," on the end.
3a.  Enjoy a correct prediction.
3b.  Act like you're relieved you're wrong and celebrate with everyone else.

Yeah that's a pretty good course, I like how wide open it is...just have to watch out for alligators.... still getting used to that.

Oops.  Sorry, that was pilot-speak for Precision Approach Radar.  I should have been more clear.  Sorry about that.

Are you familiar with AARP?

It's the new Army Acronym Reduction Plan.

For some reason they are having a tough time implementing it into the ranks.
"Here a question arises: whether it is better to be loved than feared, or the reverse. The answer is, of course, that it would be best to be both loved and feared. But since the two rarely come together, anyone compelled to choose will find greater security in being feared than in being loved."

Ragnar Hogbrok

Acronymns are still growing at an alarming rate.  The most concerning are the ones that are the same, but have totally different meanings.

Aviano huh? I was stationed in Gaeta Italy back in 2000-2003, beautiful place! That GC in Carny(sp?) park there in that old valcano is a pretty sweet place to play golf.... never had little par there either.

What's even worse is when we went all over the theatre all the little bases were called one thing by the Air Force, a different name by the Army, a different name by the Marine Corps. etc etc etc.

Little Rock AFB - I wen't really far away huh?

You know any pilots there that could help me get a gig flying whatever flies stationed out of there?  I'm tired of flying for the Army.  We don't go to "cool" places.  Only bad, austere places for "training," i.e. living in tents (if we're lucky).

Try the swap to Air Guard (189th, out of Jacksonville) if you're not active duty.  I have a guy I work with now that is getting out of the Army guard and transferring to the Air Force Guard.  I flew on C130's so we didn't go to too many "cool" places either, but the accommodations were pretty decent.  I spent most of my time gone flying around the sandbox and most of my time at home either at Bragg or Benning dropping paratroopers getting them qualified.

Leave it to the government to make something sound funny for the sake of the acronym. "PRA" just doesn't sound as good as "PAR".

Had a buddy that was out of Groton on the Pargo.....which is a reef now.   Love the sub stories he tells.   "Thermal Thursday" is one of my favorites. 

Only been on a couple subs.  Can't say that I would choose it.

I was lucky enough to pick up a PCS to Little Rock AFB last year.  I'm hoping that I'll be able to string a couple tours together here.  You never know with the big changes going on here though.

I'm sitting in Kunsan myself.  Going to Moody after this.  Not too happy with the Air Force's selection, but it's better than Cannon (where I came from).
