Well I lived in Alaska from 2002 to 2004 and joined the Air Force in 2004. Right now I am in North Carolina. The other day I went into work and was informed that I going back to AK. I am so excited. I have already ordered a lift and tires for my truck, which will be a blast up there. Anybody stationed at Eielson AFB?

 

Not yet, but I will be stationed up there in April! What's your job?

 

I am in POL and I will be there in May

 

I'm a Firefighter and my wife is an Air Traffic Controller (Tower).

 

Hey Jack how ya doing? My name is Chris Schmidt, Schmidty for short, down here at Cannon in New mexico. I'm engines, and I'm gonna be there at the end of March. Got me an F150 in nice shape, got a few other AF buddies following on up there from Kunsan too. We like to go hunting fishing, offroading and all that maybe we'll get to raise some hell up there. I really am excited to go, just not so sure bout the cold yet. Anyways, good luck and I'll see ya when you get there!!! schmidty dog

 

you will get used to the cold. i have a buddy coming from korea. the fishing is awesome and mudding but i havent done the hunting part. i cant wait to get there again.

 

POL? --- Permenantly On Leave. HEY I want that job.

 

Petroleum, Oil and Lubricants. They're our Fuel Supply guys....

 

Yes that is correct. I am a fuels guy. We also deal with liquid oxygen and nitrogen.

 

Still think "Permentally On Leave" sounds like a better job.
