Kuwait
I know that I said I would not post anymore until I won my Beret, but those plans have been postponed for at leas a year due to an upcoming deployment. I am posting here to see if any of you guys have any information about Kuwait? They don't tell us much, and I was hoping to glean some information (without violating OPSEC) from some of you 5th Group QP's if you'd take the time to share with me.
Thanks,
TB

It is in the Middle East, between Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

What a smart ass answer. Why did you post that?
And again; nice avatar. I bet you wish you were REMOTELY acquainted with an A-Camp Commander.
But take my word Sir; a GOOD one is a miserable mother***, and a lousy family man / father.
But alas, surely you only dream...

Regarding ACCL, this persons deliberate hostility and lack of general decorum is grounds for immediate banning - legacy or brother. His info should be collected and disseminated to other 'like' sites for them to monitor as well.

I'm sure he's proud, but he's not earned his time to come off as arrogant...

Because I am an SF soldier, and this is our board, not yours, boy.
And yes, I have been privileged to lead two ODAs before.
You cannot follow simple instructions, pay attention, be respectful when in another's house, or even act like you have the common sense God gave a billy goat.
If you want to act like an asshole, you can do it elsewhere.
I am sure your Daddy is really proud of you right now. 
Adios.

Roger that......I googled the "camp" that I HEARD that we'll be at, and it didn't have alot of information, but it did say that there were 3 olympic size swimming pools, several huge gyms, and quite a few fast food chains. Really going to have to maintain some discipline on myself. Other than that, I know nothing. Thanks for the heads-up on the sand though

Request to stay at Ali al Salem. There is all kinds of fun stuff to do there, and many sights to see.

I second that. There will never be a dull moment, and there is always a wonderful aroma in the air.......especially during those gorgeous summer nights with low humidity.

The Mall downtown
I always liked to go to the Mall in the big building downtown. They had a Pizza Hut that had pretty good Pizza. Had more than a few Burgers at the Fudruckers (?) out by the beach.
Beware the tire boot.

I have lived in Kuwait going on 6 years now so if you need anything let me know, Someone mentioned for you to request to stay at Ali AL Salem, DOnt do it. Request for Arifjan, has more facilities with garrisson barracks for the soldiers stationed there, LSA, ALi AL Salem, Virginia & Bheuring soldiers live either in trailers or tents.
Let me know when you come and I will PM you my cell number.
Mr. Pete, its with a heavy heart that I must tell you our beloved Fuddruckers on gulf road closed last year and is now a Lebanese Restaurant.
