April 12, 201312 yr 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.
April 12, 201312 yr Great news. I start a 179 at the CAOC next week and am actually looking forward to the quality of life there.

"As more families arrive, there is one goal they all have in common - building a strong partnership with the host nation, and ensuring regional security and stability now and in the future. " Will they also attend staff mtgs? Finally there is hope to restore peanut butter and fix the Customs idiocy Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Edited June 5, 201312 yr by vsu8992
June 5, 201312 yr They're only one short step away from retirees walking at quarter speed down the aisles of the BPC mall!
June 5, 201312 yr Proper verbiage is "dependapotami" for the plural. Actually it could be dependapotamuses or dependapotami...either is correct.
June 5, 201312 yr 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??

June 5, 201312 yr 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!"
June 6, 201312 yr 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.
June 6, 201312 yr .... 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.
June 6, 201312 yr 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.
June 6, 201312 yr Author So the article says they're bringing in dependents, but they still only list the location as "Southwest Asia" Oh yeah, OPSEC first.
June 26, 201312 yr Disco belts are "mostly" dead (in the living areas), officially. ... And there was much rejoicing.
June 26, 201312 yr 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.
