Yes, I'd LOVE to visit tha great base of our great country. Thanks for the info. WP - I do not deal with them on a day-to-day transaction basis. We deal with Warner Robins AFB mostly and I'm just damn saddened by the base closings in general.

Have to admit I am a very happy person tonight. We were at Norton AFB, CA, and it closed, McClellan AFB, CA, and it closed, and Kelly AFB, TX, and it closed. Tonight Tinker AFB stays open and gains -- after going through the last two base closures sitting in front of the TV wondering where the family would end up next, this was a great day here in OK with this round of base closings.

We had just built a new house in Texas and had lived in it less than a year when the last BRAC was announced and shortly thereafter we came to Tinker AFB as part of the first group up here. Figured Tinker, Robins, and Hill were safe this time around because the AF cannot afford to lose anymore depot capacity.
