So many places to go so little time

I'd like to see this place take off.. The only thing I got is Ft. Eustis... Great area definitely a retirement base. 45 minutes from VA Beach and in the middle of Shopping everywhere. You have the historic James river and Jamestown, the first settlement in the US. It combines things to do and see in Norfolk like concerts, shows and sports with the traditions of the revolutionary times..

I've been all over the place now in my short army career.

I will lump Forts Gordon, Benning, and Stewart all together and just say that I hate GA. Stewart has been the best of the bunch. I like 3ID for the most part. I just really really hate GA so I can't get over it.

I was over in Darmstadt Germany for a little while. That was awesome. I think that Kaserne is closed now. I know the signal brigade that was there has been disbanded. Darmstadt was great cause it had a little Irish Pub that I loved. Germany was just an awesome place to be overall.

I've traveled to a lot of other posts for short periods. Irwin, Lee, Sill, Lewis, and Drum are the ones I remember. I'm really looking forward to getting back to Lee for a while. It was a nice small post and a fairly relaxed climate. The surrounding areas were pretty nice too. Richmond has a great Bills Backers Bar that JK and I went to a few times. Definitely going to find that place again.
