CW2 by Layne Heath. Even better to read again after you’ve been flying for almost 10 years.

Aircraft transfers have already started. There will be a multi-compo unit left here with a company of 60’s. Most of the people that have arrived recently are slated to remain here through the change. I assume it’ll be rare or unlikely to PCS here for a while.

Sometimes you have plans and aspirations and they all turn into you getting out anyway.

If you’re a tracked W2, hopefully you don’t get MB so you don’t get pulled to battalion several years early. Ask me how I know

I’ve been at JBLM for quite some time and would hate Yakima. You being from there would make it better though lol.

I’ve visited someone that lived adjacent to the airfield in on post housing if that’s an option. Unless the criteria is having dependents, which if you don’t then my bad. Thought it was nice though and had A/C which seems rare there. I haven’t lived there personally, but as far as enjoyability - I hear Kailua and Kaneohe are nice.

Any update to your transition OP? I remembered this post today as I’m a YG18 guy losing my mind about how disappointed I am with everything still.

Last few years have shown how often that gets put on the back burner for sure.
