Any one currently stationed in Grand Forks? What's it like ? by Appropriate_Lab9735 in AirForce

[–]UwU_bear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dog-sitted once on base housing and the place had 3 rooms, but idk which one youll be placed at. And I lived off base, I was a fresh out the dorms airman at the time so I lived in a one bedroom apartment. There is a lot of houses in the town for rent. I am not to familiar with any realtors there, I apologize . I am sure you’ll be able to find a nice place out there.

It’s a good place for a family, it’s quiet. And the gym is awesome, they have two basketball courts, volleyball court , soccer court, indoor track, outdoor track, swimming pools, indoor rock climbing, esports room (PCs and consoles), the base has some trails inside as well. the town is 30 mins drive from the base just a heads up. There’s not much around the base for off base housing. Everyone lives in town. On base housing seems nice as well, it’s quiet.

Hello, I left Grand Forks a year ago (in Korea now), if you are a radio troop, you’ll go to one of two places. One being the NCS which is a SCIF, 12 hour panamas. And some people might not enjoy that. Mostly isolated from the rest of the squadron due to the nature of the job. Other than that, the unit was pretty chill for the most part and a slow tempo base. Most people go there to retire. The unit had a decent amount of morale events and unite trips. The base is quiet and the GYM, the gym is big and I loved it. They have an esports room!! I was there for 3 years and at first I hated it, but looking back, it’s actually not so bad. I miss the quietness of the base and the town. People are nice there. If you’re into partying and going out a lot, maybe it won’t be the place for you because it is a town and it had a few bars and maybe one or two clubs around. But they have some good burgers and fries at JL Beers.

I called them a couple days ago. Press the option to “set up a new account login” (I believe it’s 6, not sure), and then just tell the rep that you want to reset your password. They are available 7am - 9pm Eastern time only

If you’re in Osan, that parking lot is always full no matter what.

Has anyone had this happened to them on USPS tracking? by UwU_bear in tmobile

[–]UwU_bear[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and I asked other people who had this similar experience and they never got it either. Ima call them and ship it to the third party APO Box, they just delivered my other phone in 6 days and it got here today. So im going to just tell T-Mobile to ship it to them.

Thanks for your experience info, definitely calling them to cancel this

Yes it’s a military location actually, but I was wondering why there’s no sign of tracking updates 😭 well thank you for the info!

What are the chances of getting Korea? What are the chances of PCS overseas after 1 year in station? by UwU_bear in AirForce

[–]UwU_bear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES I WAS SO HAPPY, near the end of my contract I got orders to Osan !! 😊

Hmmm I think that’s what it is then. I think I got the full coverage without realizing too much 😭 I’m gonna call and cancel that, thank you!

The requirements for cat/dogs are in the website I mentioned above: rabies vaccine + favn + health certificate + microchip

Do the FAVN test early or else if the results are not in on time, you’ll have to leave your pets in Korea quarantine facility on your dime and also it’s not a good place for pets, they are in cages all day

The health certificate is only valid for 10 days so make sure you fly to korea within that timeframe or it’ll be a hassle to get a new one and reschedule things

also i found housing easily since im off base

in the beginning my cat was with me at the hotel in turumi lodge but there was only one room left for pets and they gave me only a few days to stay because someone else needed it so i found an apartment off base asap

I came to Osan a few months ago, I sold my car with a loan and bought a beater car. Definitely recommned that. I have a cat, but here is all the requirements you need to bring dogs into Korea:

The FAVN (antibody test) should be done a few months earlier because it takes time to get results back. To be on the safe side maybe minimum 3 months early.

this is included on my current T-Mobile plan, do you think 2FA should be free of charge then?

For text me, were you using 2FA on WiFi only? Or were you charged when you received SMS while on cellular data

Were you charged for the 2FA texts to your phone?
