yzl337 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Didn't wear a reflective belt the entire time I was there last year, not a word was said to me. Also had a stache that was pretty far out of regs that garnered me plenty of dirty looks, but nothing actually said to me.
schokie Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Great news. I start a 179 at the CAOC next week and am actually looking forward to the quality of life there.
Tank Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Great news. I start a 179 at the CAOC next week and am actually looking forward to the quality of life there. These two statements should never be in the same sentence.
Homestar Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 QOL at the Deid is a billion times better than QOL anywhere in Afghanistan.
afnav Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 I'm glad life out there is better than it was when I was there in '09.
LockheedFix Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 My QoL when I'm there drops every time I pass the AFCENT Band Practice Faciltiy. 2
guineapigfury Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Proper verbiage is "dependapotami" for the plural.

Napoleon_Tanerite Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 They're only one short step away from retirees walking at quarter speed down the aisles of the BPC mall! 2
SocialD Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Proper verbiage is "dependapotami" for the plural. Actually it could be dependapotamuses or dependapotami...either is correct.
Hercster Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Hopefully chopped chicken returns soon...It is really nice though, to not have to worry about the dumb reflective belt. Maybe 10% of folks I see wear one and *gasp* accidents have not gone up. Have we been lied to?? 1

addict Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 CAPTIONS (I noticed a nice trend from left to right of the people changing where they are looking. Starting at left, looking at their feet, to the nose-in-the air at the right. So....) "What kind of ######ed is your dependent? I'm ######ed This ######ing Sucks Is She ######ing Serious? I Will Do Fine Here ###### YOU!"
lj35driver Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 I saw a forty something year old woman walking her chihuahua through the bra last month and wondered WTF was going on. With all the new dorms and facility construction going on, that place is looking way too permanent. I took a few pics of the BX and food court and friends who had never been to the Deid thought they were taken at some stateside base. The last time I saw that level of permanency happening at one of our Middle East locations was at PSAB about a year before we left it.
sputnik Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 .... The last time I saw that level of permanency happening at one of our Middle East locations was at PSAB about a year before we left it. From your lips to God's ears. 3
snoopyeast Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 I saw a forty something year old woman walking her chihuahua through the bra last month and wondered WTF was going on. Saw the same thing earlier in the year, along with the high-chairs at the chow hall, 150 school kids on the ramp as I was trying to taxi out for a "combat" mission, etc. That was also the same day the sky cop dog was barking at the balloons flying from the stage at the BRA.
Toro Posted June 6, 2013 Author Posted June 6, 2013 So the article says they're bringing in dependents, but they still only list the location as "Southwest Asia" Oh yeah, OPSEC first.
Jaded Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Guess that means HFP and CZTE are done for there? No, reference Osan or Aviano.
Tonka Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Disco belts are "mostly" dead (in the living areas), officially. ... And there was much rejoicing.
sky_king Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Are people still going off base? With the Taliban office down town, I know I wouldn't want to stick me literal neck out there. Great time to bring your families along too.
BFM this Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 No, reference Osan or Aviano. Osan gets neither, even with P518 sorties.
