Good for you as a civilian you get to stay inside when the lake effect hammers the shit out of the area when I was at Drum nothing short of a raging blizzard shut down the post. I'm from Alabama the part that might see a whole inch of snow every 5 years or so.I'm from that area, and I love the area around Watertown and Alex Bay ALL YEAR ROUND. So I ask again. What's wrong with Fort Drum?Sounds like a question from someone who hasn't been there during Winter time and thus never had to go through cold weather training. I was lucky, I wasn't Infantry, but it still sucked sleeping in a GP medium for a week with no heat and temps that got as low as -20 below. Have you ever tried running in formation in near whiteout conditions ?What's wrong with Fort Drum?Fortunately, I’ve never been assigned to any of these. If any of you have, comments are always welcome.
