I remember Minot. And NOT fondly.
The town was settled mostly in a gash in the ground that had a tiny river running through it that occasionally flooded. Somehow, the raging, mighty Mouse river didn’t inspire terror.
“I remember Minot. And NOT fondly.”
Being young and from the NYC area, Minot was more of sentence than a assignment. LOL! And when i finally got my orders after 2 years.....it was to send me to Eilson....in January! Needless to say that did little to entice me into becoming a lifer.
Yeah, you could practically jump across the Mouse. But hey at least being in the gash in the ground it did cut the wind down from 40mph to a bracing 25mph or so.
