But that was for 3-5 days a visit maybe 5 times over the course of my deployment (I went site to site in the theater doing maintenance on satellite terminals and radios) and can confirm that it was a shitty post.

The LSA was in a 100 acre dirt field enclosed in a 15 foot tall berm. All that did was trap all the water every time it rained flooding our tents and DFAC with greasy mud.

We got kicked out of Uzbekistan when congress said "Maybe don't boil you political opponents alive" and relocated to Kyrgyzstan.

Who proceeded to use our presence in that former Soviet State to negotiate a better aid deal with Putin.

They then threw us out.

Good Times
