Jeff's Story
Life
Since I know people read this I'll just hit the highlights because I know you have things to do. I won't go into relationships, just the fun stuff. My life was pretty boring in Arkansas until at age 25 I enlisted in the Air Force where I became a firefighter. My first duty assignment I was stationed at R.A.F. Mildenhall in the U.K. While stationed there I traveled a bit. Some of the more famous places I went to were Sherwood Forrest, Stone Hinge, The city of York, The Tower of London (where I saw the crown jewels), Amsterdam, Belgium, Paris and a small part of Germany. After R.A.F. Mildenhall I was stationed at Bergstrom Air Force Base in Austin Texas for 2 years in the military. I went TDY to Homestead A.F.B. for about 1 1/2 months after hurricane Andrew to help out. While there I was able to travel to the Bahamas for a day trip. I spent another 2 years at Bergstrom as a civil service firefighter for the Air Force. In 1995 the base was closed so I was transfered to Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri where I worked for 6 years. While there I traveled back to the U.K. also to ...Expand for more
again Europe (Germany, Paris, Amstedam, Croatia, Italy) and Canada. After Missouri I transfered to Tinker A.F.B. in Oklahoma City. I spent about 1 1/2 years there. I got tired of that and decided to take a job with KBR (Kellogg, Brown, and Root) in Kuwait. While there I traveled to the land of smiles (Thailand) What a great place! I still go there every 4 months and hope to at least semi-retire in a few years. After 16 months in Kuwait I moved up to Baghdad Iraq. I spent 23 month in Baghdad's famous Green Zone. In June 2006 I traveled to Hong Kong. The cleanest city I've ever been to. In November 2006 I transfered down south to Basrah Iraq which is not far from the Iran, Kuwait borders. It was crazy there with all the rockets and mortars. 129 launched at our camp in October, 150 in December. I was lucky to meet everyone at our last class reunion. 2007 I left Basrah after 1 year and transfered back to kuwait. 2009 kuwait closed I transfered back to Baghdad but was sent to Basrah TDY. What else do you want to know? Take care and check back for more updates and new adventures.
