I’m just looking for any info I can relay. Whatever you can tell me about the base or area would be appreciated. Things to bring, things to leave home, etc.

Thanks.

Would expect him to have regular mail out of Kuwait, so anything he's missing will take a week or so to get there. Dunno if they've reopened a PX up there or not.

Married the most eligible woman on ARFCOM.

I'm sure they are keeping close tabs on obscure internet forums to see where mechanics might be rotated.

I know it is kinda sparse. As for specifics like living conditions, are pretty rough. Tents and chues. Real basic. You can buy a hotspot and pay for service, but I am not sure how good it is. PX is a trailer last I heard.

Taji used to be huge. No idea now. Good luck to him. I’m sure RT Tampa still sucks.

Still huge. Hot.
Airfield is a good hike from everything good.
Amenities are within walking distance of your chu.
Buses seem to be ok for transpo.
Main chow hall is baller.
Lots of coalition splittail walking around in silkies with pistols.
