Gents, ladies, SF, SF recruiter and AMEDD personnel out there, I would like to solicit your advice in choosing duty station. My options are:
- Fort Hood, TX (DAMC)
- Fort Sam Houston, TX (BAMC)
- Fort Bliss, TX (WBAMC)
- Fort Gordon, GA (DDEAMC)
- Fort Bragg, NC (WAMC)
- Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC)
- Fort Lewis, WA (MAMC)
- Hawaii (TAMC)
- Germany (LRMC)
- Fort Benning, GA
I've been going in this journey with more of an enlisted grunt view than an officer, so I have always assumed I wouldn't have a say in where and when. I never care where as long as I'm serving, and as I don't have any place I call home anyway. Now that I have a choice (I get to pick three), my considerations are:
1.The hospital. Those of you that have spent time either as staff or patient, any thoughts you wish to share? Both thumbs up and thumbs down are welcome
2. Which base(s) have a regular SF tryout? IIRC, 19th group at Ft. Sam Houston has it and hopefully still does.
3. Living expenses. If you're frugal, which location allows the most savings?
4. CCW policy, crime, shooting ranges, rock gym, crossfit, MMA gym, etc.
.....of course, Deutschland is in the list. Seems like a no brainer to pick that instantly
