After I'm done Basic Training I'm getting stationed in Georgia... I've never been there, so has anybody here? If so, what's it like?
Mostly swamps where the Army has bases...however Georgia can be a real party town! Just curious what is your MOS going to be since you are going to Georgia...yes...this is a test!
Where in Georgia? I was stationed at Ft. Stewart, GA (Hinesville) and I did basic and AIT at Ft. Benning (Follow Me!) I was 11HE9
Have visited with our daughter and son-in-law at Ft. McPherson in Atlanta. Beautiful army post. Not at all like what most people have in mind for an army base. Keep your fingers crossed that you are lucky enough to be assigned there. On another note, if you suffer from allergies, Georgia can be hell in the springtime.
Ft. Stewart wasn't TOO bad (better than Ft. Riley was in my book!). Being close to Savannah and the coast made it more bearable. The alligators and mosquitos will drive ya nuts though!
I lived in Fort Rucker, AL. for a lot of my younger years, very hot and humid, I'd imagine it's the same along the latidute there. The people around there should steriotypically be supportive of the military, too.
Not in Georgia while in the Army,however did Federal law enf training at FLETC there...really a party town...had alot of fun...Did Basic at Ft.Ord,Ca...the old days...sigh..also AIT at Ft.Knox Ky,OCS at Ft.Belvoir,Va...did Europe and S/e Asia...all in a days work for a soldier...LOL
