Beale AFB, California... Our first duty
assignment from 1986 to 1989. Located 40 minutes north of
Sacramento it was a lovely introduction into the Air Force world.
Hahn AFB, Germany...
1989 to 1992, we started out at Wuesheim, a
missile base very near Hahn, then closed it down and moved to Hahn
proper. The entire tour we lived in one apartment over a bier
stube in Zell am Mosel. This is where Hans Christian joined us.
Laughlin AFB, Texas...
1992 to 1994, two years of hell for Curt, but a
wonderful time at Family Services for me... but when the job is rough,
the entire tour is rough... it's the only place where he can count the
days he was there. This is where DeForest joined us.
Incirlik AB, Turkey...
1994 to 1996, two years of hard times, and good
times... a land of opposites, Turkey, our favorite assignment yet, but
also one of the most difficult.
Ghedi AS, Italy...
1996 to 1998, best thing about Italy was the
food... and how close it is to Germany, nice place to visit, but we
would not want to live there again.
Beale AFB, California...
twice... yes... twice... this time from 1998 to
2001. Many good things come from Beale this time around... a nice
location, nice base, not a hardship to live there twice.
RAF Lakenheath, England...
2001 to 2004... Worst.
Tour. Ever.
