Hehe thanks Sailor I'm actually dating a girl in ROTC and she wants to be a heavy pilot - C-17s, C-130s and the like. And as much as I love blondes she actually has brown hair O God....Ellsworth AFB. Don't ever bring that place up again please...I never want to be stationed there ever in my life............

Hey, don't knock those brunettes bud. Mrs S is brown haired, not at all air-headed, not nearly as high maintenance as many blondes I've known and as cuddly as they come. Best of all worlds. As far as being able to stay away from Ellsworth, good luck - the Air Farce may have other ideas. You might even be able to get on a crew like this one: www.strategypage.com/gallery/articles/military_photos_20051011.aspOne day I'll have to tell you the story of how I almost had to share a room with 2 Air Force (female) types, 1 officer and 1 enlisted (cute as hell) in a Holiday Inn outside the Charleston AFB right after Hurricane Hugo came through, all due to a mistake at the desk and a full Motel. ;D

If the Air Force forced me to go to Ellsworth I would obviously have to go but it would just be really weird. If I drove past the barracks I might have a panic attack and crash my car..... Seriously...just thinking about that place makes me nervous. I remember my first day there like it was yesterday - definitely the worst day of my life. Haha Officers and Enlisted sharing rooms together? Don't you know that Officer/Enlisted relationships are forbidden Sailor? I went to Charleston AFB for my summer program two years ago - it was really nice. I would definitely consider staying there sometime during my career.

Remember your Niche. Hey, what can I tell you. The visitor "Q's" on base were still trashed after the hurricane and this Holiday Inn had just been able to reopen. Things were still chaotic and the clerk who took the registration checked the wrong box "F" instead of "M" and misspelled my name "Roberta", and asked me if I wouldn't mind having to share a room if necessary (still a lack of temp housing only a week after the storm) and then went off duty. The 2 cuties showed up after dark looking for a room, and guess what. I wound up sharing a room with Chief I flew in with, and the cuties got mine. Drat. Charleston AFB wasn't bad before the hurricane went through, nicer than anything I had experienced in the Navy. I haven't been back there since the post Hugo rebuilding.

Damn! I'd jump INTO that 130! I was never lucky enough to get a crew like that either. I retired before I had to go to sea in a ship with women as part of the permanent crew, though we did carry the occasional female officer TemDu in CARON and did a short summer Academy midshipman cruise with about 30 female midshipmen in NASSAU. THAT was an interesting cruise, I'd never seen so many pair of "seafarer" dungaree jeans filled out that nicely before, or since. ;D Sunday "steel beach" at sea was a real eye opener when the flight deck was opened for sun bathing.
