Good times indeed


Yeah, my toughest living conditions have been CONUS - Fort Polk (anytime is bad, and I've been there every season, every weather condition), Fort Riley ( ) in condemned WWII barracks, North Fort Hood ( ), Fort Dix in moldy, smelly barracks and, of course, the Louisiana Superdome under the worst conditions imaginable.

OCONUS? Camp Monteith and COB Speicher. I've got no complaints.

Barracks at North Fort Polk were horrible (JRTC rotation). Commanded a battalion at Dix and we actually liked the barracks for lodging in kind (made my life so much easier - not going to lie). Have heard the horror stories about mobilization through North Fort Hood. Never have been to Fort Reilly for any reason. Did not do the Iraq thing. Asscrackistan only.

Ever been to McGregor Range at White Sands? That's a real peach.
