Been there...all in all, not to bad. I never got to go off base the three months I was there so that blew. I was a crew chief then, no Im fire protection so Im sure it will be better if I go there again. But I know its a lot better the Bagram.

That place is awesome compared to other places. I delivered bottled water (3E4X1) and also delivered non potable water via water trucks over there for 4 months. You guys ever go to Camp Aseeleyah? Their food over there is great compare to the 'Deid.

I was there from may-sept 06. I was at the 8th EAMS and it was a terrible deployment. I worked at the passenger terminal as the lost baggage rep on night shift, it was pretty much the worst job I've ever worked. But the 3 drinks a day was pretty killer. I sent my girlfriend a picture of a thermometer when it was like 125' and she thought it was a clock, lol.
