Default Luke AFB

I know there are a few people on here from Luke already, but seeing if anyone new is on here. I've been seeing a lot of new Ls1 car's on base the past two months.

My younger brother is over there (he has the black LT1 Z28 with hugger orange hockey stripes), but he's PCSing soon.

I doubt you'll see his car moving anywhere from base housing, I think he needs new heads.

Of course I know Dickson, I have gone to the track with him and his crustang crew. He never will bring the red crustang to run against mine. He is skertd.

There is also a town called Bagdad Arizona. Phx is a great place to live, I hope I never get orders for anywhere else.

Hey man, I sent you some PM's back when I first signed up for this site. I am in POL at Luke. We have a bunch of guys PCS'ing but I don't think they are planning on replacing them. Our storage is contracted now so our manning numbers are lower.

Definitely stay off base if you come here. Like they said, Surprise is nice and it is growing fast. I heard they have plans for an amusement park(six flags is what I heard a couple of years ago) and a mall to rival the Mall of America.
