I've been in the AF for a minute, have a good number of years ahead of me. Been able to get to some cool places like Alaska to do things I'd never be able to afford otherwise! The hard part about moving every 3 years is that its going to be hard to pick a place to settle down when the time comes. Alaska is amazing, but so are some of the other places ive gotten to enjoy...

Ain't so bad once the stockhold syndrome sets in. Hoping my ridiculous TOS will eventually get me orders to Elmendorf or Fairchild so I can be closer to some quality hunting. ND waterfowl is amazing but I'm pretty burnt out from chasing the few dog sized whitetail deer they have here.

JBER is the bomb.com! Great base, great mission, amazing hunting opportunities. Plus, if your into fishing, its legandary up there. Barksdale had great deer hunting oppertunities, but ya, they were also pretty small so I hear ya there.
