Welcome to Rate My AFB!

Like the title says, fresh outta tech going to Whiteman as a single dude in SF. How is it lol

I’m applying for my BOP in March and I’m wondering everyone’s opinions on:

Little Rock AFB McGuire AFB Dover AFB Fairchild AFB

Thanks in advance!

Scott AFB Illinois Malmstrom AFB Montana Minot AFB North Dakota FE Warren AFB Wyoming Fairchild AFB Washington Mountain Home AFB Idaho

Title, probably gonna try to finish out my 20 here. Any thought on where to live? Closer to Sacramento, closer to base? Prices for general living? any tips about local area? On a scale of 1-10 how good are the support units on base? Im Intel, NCO, probably going to the DGS.

Either way im ust happy to be out of NATO.

What should I do I got North Dakota is it as bad as I heard I’m in Grand Forks what is there to do

Curious what bases others would reccomend for CE with my BOP coming up. I want to go overseas, but this is only a BOP dreamsheet. What should I eliminate and what should be #1?

Interests in no order: Hill Peterson Fairchild Nellis Luke Eglin Lackland Offutt Hurlburt Field

What the hell has happened to the pharmacy, it is slow as hell. They shut down the main pharmacy and are just using the satilite pharmacy with reduced hours.

Use this post to ask for feedback on your base dream sheets. Comments can ask for more information about one base in particular but should at least include a dream sheet.

First base come 2025, pros cons? Living off base by the way

What are your personal opinions on Eglin? Cost of living, crime, etc. Or what bases in Florida are worth putting on dream sheet?

I have two base options i might be PCS ing to. Fort George Meade ( air force personnel) or Langley AFB . Does anyone know the pros & cons regarding the two ? Which one is better regarding living conditions, safety , crime, etc. ?

Started the process of cross training to 1B4. Wanna get ahead of the base picking process, maybe a bit preemptive. Bases available are as follows: Hurlburt, Lackland, Scott, and Ft. Mead. There a clear winner or clear loser here?

Heading to Schirever in early November to work there as Security Forces. Heard great things about it but was wondering if anyone could tell me more about it.

What we think about this base:

Preference 1: MACDILL AFB FL Preference 2: EGLIN AFB FL Preference 3: TYNDALL AFB FL Preference 4: PENSACOLA FL Preference 5: ORLANDO CITY FL Preference 6: CAPE CANAVERAL FL Preference 7: MELBOURNE CITY FL Preference 8: PATRICK AFB FL

So I applied for a FTA BOP from a short tour base over seas. I applied in September 24 and my DEROS is June 25. When will I know what base I got? All the bases were back State sides. Thank you!

I currently am ranking my base options, and my top 3 are Hanscom, Patrick, and Hill. What are your thoughts, what are your experiences? For context, this is my first base as a 2d Lt, I am an Acquisitions Manager, and I'm from the PNW so I am used to relatively chill weather.

I posted this in the weekly post but I think it would be good if I posted it here as well. Still in DEP, shipping out October 15, but studying on what I should put on my CONUS list. Would LOVE some help!! Looking for bases that are near to nice entertainment and/or possible decent op tempo (List not in particular order and I'm 1D7X1D).

I heard it was 8 overseas and 8 stateside, how is the bases for a PMEL tech

help on BOP list (64p) needed :)

•	Nebraska: OFFUTT AFB
•	Colorado: PETERSON SFB
•	Colorado: BUCKLEY SFB
•	Alaska: JB ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON
•	Oklahoma: TINKER AFB
•	South Carolina: JB CHARLESTON
•	California: TRAVIS AFB
•	California: VANDENBERG SFB
•	Washington: FAIRCHILD AFB
•	Virginia: JB LANGLEY-EUSTIS

Haven’t settled on any particular order other than Offutt probably being my #1 CONUS pick.

I have done so much research but still feel like I have no idea what I’m looking at. Will be a new LT with no attachments besides my cat so I want to be somewhere where I can be social with a fairly active young people scene.

Honest feedback appreciated!

My first duty station is Guam. What can I expect?

Rate Malmstrom and the things to do around this base. Arriving there in less than a month. Let me know if there's Futbol team out there too!

Hey everyone, I’m getting ready to submit my BOP and could use some advice from those with experience at any of these locations. If you've been stationed at any of the following bases and have insights on ops tempo, deployments, or TDYs, I’d really appreciate your feedback!

A bit about me: I’m currently a 1S0X1 (previously retrained from 2A6X1F), and I’m a SSgt with a wife and daughter. So, any recommendations on great family-friendly areas to live would also be super helpful.

Here are the bases I’m considering:

1. Eglin, FL
2. MacDill, FL
3. Patrick, FL
4. Hurlburt Field, FL
5. JB Charleston, SC
6. Keesler, MS
7. Maxwell, AL
8. Peterson, CO

Let me know your thoughts or experiences with any of these! Thanks in advance for the help!

Just received board results and will be a critical care nurse at Ft Sam Houston! Could you guys give me any advice on the area, base, working as a nurse or critical care nurse at JBSA? Any advice, pros and cons would be appreciated thank you!

I will be PCSing to Misawa soon. Single E4. What is it like over there? I’ve heard it snows a lot and is a little far from Tokyo and all major cities so travel is expensive. Any tips or stuff I should know before I go? Hidden gems?
