I was station at Holloman Jan 1990 to Nov 1991. Was TDY out of there a lot, roughly 14 months. I did spend Christmas there in 2003.
 
i was at work in the command post there in 2003. that's the one thing i hate about being the military, being away from your family on holidays. i still wouldn't trade jobs for anything in the world though!
 
Was in from 1981 to 2001 USAF!!!! Was at Ellsworth, Offtut, and Eglin. Went to Egpyt for a while That blew and to Enduring Freedom for Kosovlo. That blew. Retired @ Eglin. I'm from Bama so it was good. Close to home but far enough away that the inlaws can't drop in un-annouced.
 
I served for 3 years with the 1/26th Inf Battalion, 1st Infantry Division. My years of service were from 1977-1980. I served my time in Germany. I worked as a mechanic in this mechanized infantry unit. I only worked as a mechanic for a year following my ets. I went to Iowa State University and got my teaching degree and have now taught for 23 years.

Just bumpin' this thead for new members who may not have seen it!
 
Good thinking, can't believe this is 6 pages already. I guess us all of us old military types figured out how bad the chow was and got to smoking some good stuff!

Case in point, we got hot chow once a week for awhile. It was camel meat and rice. I finally just settled for my MRE's as they were better.
 
I really think I ate a lot of camel, but didn't really care after a good fistful of months of MREs!
 
Awesome thread!!

Hat's off to all of you, I appreciate all you have done and are doing for me.
