Almost got sent there....glad I didn't. My Lady's family lives in ND and we visited one Christmas. No desire to go back.

I did three years at Eielson AFB, AK. After having experienced both, I have to admit there is a big difference between AK -20F and ND -20F. Don't ask me to explain it, I just know the ND -20F was down right miserable, the AK -20F was just something you had to be cognizant of and live and travel accordingly.

Finished my career as a Staff Sergeant serving as the Warrior Transition Unit Platoon Sergeant at Ft. Leavenworth, KS before it deactivated. I now work as a contractor at the National Simulation Center at Ft. Leavenworth as a training specialist developing VBS2 and associated products.

I miss active duty, but I'd like to think I'm still training Soldiers indirectly.
