  • Back in Virginia

    Yep, I finally got out of recruting!! ;D I'm now stationed at COMOPTEVFOR in Norfolk, Va. It's an evaluation and testing facility for all the new toys the Navy gets. Nice to be back down here, but I still haven't found a place to live! > There's no room in the barracks for a geographic bachelor E-5 or above. That would've been nice to know before I got down here. I'll keep plugging away at it until I find something.

    Shannon, My son made E-5 last year while stationed at Ft. Hood, TX., the next day he was informed he had to get out of the barracks and had a week to do it! Good luck on you search.....

      Get a diesel powered RV, then start looking for large barns to buy / rent -

      park the RV inside, hook up plumbing and electric, and start buying hot rods to park next to it!

      ;D

      There's always something new to learn.

        :D Gotta keep my priorities straight, huh? On a serious note, I have considered looking for a camper. They have spaces on the amphibious base in Virginia Beach for camper hook-ups. 66Fury3, does Ft. Hood have anything like that? Myabe your son could do the same thing. That's bullshit that they only gave him a week to find a place to live! >

                        I have a friend who lives in Hampton. Maybe she will know somewhere to stay. She is former Navy also. PM me if you want me to contact her. If you like ribs try Darrel's. Its out by military circle. Or it used to be.
                        OH YEAH
                        Long haul 07. 08. 10, 11, and 13. Looking forward to 2014
