My nephew loves Peterson and a good friend of mine loves MacDill. I never got stationed at a base on my dream sheet until I went to a remote base. I was given my third choice which wasn’t too good. That base no longer exists.

If your boyfriend is Security Forces, he will get screwed on his choice of bases but it’s a fun career field. He will go to a missile or bomber base and then get deployed to SWA.

Avoid Scott (small-boring-headquarters base), McConnel (cold-remote), and Hill (cold-remote). Bases near larger cities are more fun, but if you like hunting and fishing, there are many bases that could satisfy you.

1) Awesome! Denver is a bit creepy in some parts, but great if you like snow

2) Kansas has a lot of flat. Not a fan
3)They don’t call it No-Hope Pope for a reason
4) Same as #1, just insert Salt Lake City for Denver
5) AWESOME!!!! Tampa is the shiznit!
6) Dunno, good if you like the beach, I guess
7) Not a huge fan, but there is worse (see #2 and #3)
Same as #2 except the saving grace of Chicago or Springfield on the weekends

ooooh Travis! Great location. Lots of dirty hippies who protest everything though.

I assume he's in the Air Force, because Pope Air Force Base is connected to Fort Bragg, in Fayetteville, NC. It's a great post, beautiful, lots of amenities. Terrible city. Scummy, dirty, trashy, crime infested city.

I've heard good things about Pope and Seymour Johnson.

Ask for Iraq and Afghanistan that way they may just keep you stateside. I never met anyone who got a assignment from the dream sheet but I am sure it happens once in awhile

Use the following link to military.com webpage. It has a bunch of information about all the military bases around the world. Hope it helps.
