i was on just about every base in Kuwait in 07.. Behring (pronounced buering), AJ, Ali al Salem/The Rock, kuwaiti naval base and camp virginia (where i was most the time). It wasnt bad, they had everything you could ever need, it wasnt like a deployment at all.

You should try to get on the list to go...it's a good time.

Are you Air Force or Army? I'm in good with a few of the Air Force supply chicks that are there now. If you need anything I might be able to hook you up. I'm talking about uniforms and boots....not hummers and hand jobs. lol But, I could always ask.
Yeah I work on the line all day going from plane to plane. And a handjob for my birthday would nice

Have a couple bro's that have passed through recently. Didn't sound like much had changed other than a less strict glowbely policy. I have been out since '10.

i think i was there for 6 or 7 days a couple years ago, waiting to go back to Afg after R&R. Pretty nice place, looks easy to get fat there if you stay out of the heat long enough.

I just passed through there on my way to FOB Shank. They had a great chow hall, but that's about it. It was an unorganized cluster **** getting in and getting out of there. They do the same thing every week for years, hows it still so fucked up?
