    Good ole Ft. McClellan. I did some ROTC stuff there, but it was closed down a short time later.

    Yeah, Ft. McClellan/ Anniston, AL was a real eye opener for me. I even got frostbite for the first time.

    That ain't no Air Force base. It's a country club with a runway on it.

    Welcome to the military section of SB to all the new faces who have recently chimed in!
    The price of freedom is paid only by those willing to fight for it.

    My train of thought derailed before leaving the station!

    The coldest I have seen in the south was at Ft. Benning in early January 2002 when I went for a 5 mile run and when I came out of "the zone" I noticed everyone's black watch-caps had ice on the front of them from where their breath had risen a little then froze to the threads in the cap. I think the air temp was somewhere around 15 degrees or so. At those temps the "winter" PT gear works as well as a Polish firing squad.

    It's been pretty cold here at Redstone Arsenal (Huntsville, AL) The buildings are heated by steam, and I've seen the steam come out of the vents, condense back onto the building roofs and have four foot long ice-cicles hanging from the eaves!!!

    Hey, if the powers that be want to send me to a place where I can surf at lunch, play in a golf tournament about once a month, and dive on the weekends I'm not going to complain! Hopefully my PCS next summer will be just as kind.

    I certainly wouldn't complain about Patrick AFB either! Way ta go!
    So how's the diving around there. My mother in law lives there in Melbourne, but everytime we go to visit, we end up driving down to Boca or the Keys. I've never even inquired at a local LDS there. I know there's no reefs there, but I have heard there were some wrecks.
    I hope you get a decent PCS. I put Hawaii on my dream sheet and ended up with Charleston SC, which wasn't all that bad. Didn't dive at the time though.
