March AFB was my favorite (83-85), Andrews AFB was fun and I enjoyed my time in Plattsburgh AFB (NY) Blytheville AFB in Arkansas we my least favorite but I made the best of it
Comment from : @WoodyXRay

Why wasn't Minot mentioned?
Comment from : @correctionalofficer4lockdo763

Times change Was stationed at Nellis, 71-75 Poor married guy with two kids Considered it a terrible duty assignment Money matters
Comment from : @leroygodfrey3532

I agree with your 1st choice Nellis AFB I was stationed there with the 474th Tac Fighter Wing, 474th EMS AGE ShopbrI was at Nellis from 1984 to 1989 when the 474th closed Nellis AFB was the BEST assignment in my Air Force career
Comment from : @gmartin474

Comment from : @stephanieljackson4656

I've been en san Antonio Texas base and Washington state base, and my son is now moving to Dover base My question is how enjoyable and how many different types of activities you can find there?
Comment from : @betaniaimaldonado2944

nice video but vegas is mid
Comment from : @majorscrilla2246

Actually JBLM is about 35 miles south of Seattle It borders the city of Lakewood, along with suburbs, like Tillicum The I-5 commute is horrendous FYI
Comment from : @gatehouse5209

Vandenberg is a hidden gem
Comment from : @BigDawgBama

I’m headed to Luke AFB , Arizona in April after being here in England for 4 years
Comment from : @soiceygang6649

As long as you're on base, nobody can tag you to be it!!!brAnd that's any base AWESOME SAUCE!!!
Comment from : @JimWoolston-cj9nu

Closed for many years but from 62 - 65 I was stationed at Castle AFB CA near Merced and Atwater brbrCastle had great amenities as well as being near Yosemite! Another major plus was the location mid-way between the San Francisco Bay Area or Sunny Southern California Either and more within driving distance for a weekend passbrbrNot a base assignment but still a worthwhile destination as the Castle Air Museum with lots of historic aircraftbrbrConveniently located near I-5 and US-99, you could fly in to the private aviation Castle Air Field
Comment from : @JohnConrod

I’m sorry but Texas weather sucks expecially Austin Houston and San Antonio
Comment from : @parkerkam2685

To be fair it all depends on the person when it comes down to the "best" base
Comment from : @melissaherndon3211

I was stationed at Hurlburt at Eglin in the early 1970s Fort Walton Beach, and Destin were pretty cool I went back a couple of years ago, and hardly recognized the place It had really grown a lot Wasn't real fond of my job as a masonry spec in the RED HORSE Squadron there Concrete work in that heat was a real bear
Comment from : @mickmcloughlin1646

No Minot? FE Warren? Lmao
Comment from : @keithbradley4224

McChord AFB is not in Seattle It is 16 miles south of Tacoma, WA
Comment from : @Smacks41

McCordrain, traffic, expensive areaand liberals Andrewsexpensive and crowded IMOMcDill in Layton, UT is the nicest Close to Salt Lake City, the mountains for skiing and biking, Utah Jazz and now professional hockeyU of Utah, lots of arts and concerts in SLC Nice place
Comment from : @heymoe1179

Eglin in Ft Walton bch
Comment from : @Jeff-zk8dh

Nellis is his best base that’s laughable
Comment from : @lynngrabill1275

Tindel and Eiland in Florida are similar to McDill The quality and availability of base housing is what' s important when you have dependents
Comment from : @77space-vt8wi

its gotta be hard to get assigned to these bases
Comment from : @JJ-rf7dg

Hurlburt Field was great
Comment from : @IRatherbeTrashthanADemocrat

Spent two years at Schriever AFB or Space Base It sucked
Comment from : @billmaurer5778

1 Peterson AFB, Colorado br2 Luke AFB, Arizona br3 MacDill AFB, Florida br4 Buckley AFB, Colorado br5 Vandenberg AFB , California brbrThese are my top 5 that I love n trying to go once I leave England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
Comment from : @soiceygang6649

Ellsworth AFB SD GOATEDDDD
Comment from : @mikerieken

Why haven't I seen Scott AFB, Illinois mentioned? LOL It was only 3 hours from West Ky I arrived there from Viet Nam! Almost volunteered to go back to Nam!
Comment from : @Suncast45

I was a pilot and was stationed at Peterson Field, Colorado Springs in the 1970'slong before it was renamed It was an awesome place to be stationed, especially during the Viet Nam war
Comment from : @mikekalish6796

Andrew’s has similar problems:br1-It’s an urban areabr2-it’s full of liberals
Comment from : @santamanone

Seattle has three major problems though:br1-It’s a citybr2-It’s full of liberalsbr3-It’s near Canada
Comment from : @santamanone

I spent eight years at Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, from '73 to '80 Wonderful base for family life
Comment from : @davidwood2205

Sheppard AFB is nice as the sheep are trained to back up to the fences and you have an instant glory hole
Comment from : @wofat6300

Only base I didn't particularly enjoy2 week TDY to Cannon in 1974 Now that it is a Special Op baseI think I would like it now
Comment from : @johnblair765

My good USAF basesEielson, Bergstrom, Spangdahlem Sheppard and Reese oknot bad I actually enjoyed all of my USAF bases it's all good
Comment from : @johnblair765

Comment from : @YunggGee44

TRAVIS AFB CA Is my favorite ❤
Comment from : @RichardChouinard-lg2jm

I was assigned to Andrews AFB twice It was my only CONUS assignment It was my first permanent duty station, it was also my last I agree that there is a ton of stuff to do in the area It was ideal for me since I am originally from Philadelphia, PA which was only a three hour drive
Comment from : @breygon1

Im interesting going to air force but I wonder what jobs I can choose to stay in San Antonio base?
Comment from : @haggeomartinez6418

Nowadays if you’re Services military, you have few choices in stateside assignments unless you’re special duty in San Antonio Most likely you’ll get missile bases unless you’re lucky enough to get Florida, New Joisey, Barcatraz, Nellis, or Travis
Comment from : @jondstewart

Lowry,BergstromAFB (close) Kirkland AFB, was good assignments
Comment from : @markpointer7981

I can't give you two that AREN'T top 5: Cannon and Ellsworth And that's why I got the F out
Comment from : @michaeloffgrid

I have to agree with at leat 2 of your top bases My first duty station in the Army was Ft Lewis Wa My second was Ft Carson ,Co near Colorado Springs They are both great for all the reasons you stated
Comment from : @GaryAlbers-ms4vq

Wrong on all accounts but this is your list that you like Number one should be Tyndall, Eglin, Travis, Elmendorf, and Hickam
Comment from : @k9companion231

This dude is nuts!!! None of the bases he mentioned are great assignments Tyndall AFB in Panama City, Florida is by far the best, and in my career I have been all around the globe Emerald Coast is the most beautiful place on earth!!
Comment from : @billdaly-zn8qs

🥸🥸🥸
Comment from : @sandrade2004

We always jokes in the 80s, that there were only 2 good bases The one you came from, and the one you’re going to
Comment from : @AR-pm9nv

I have nothing to compare anything to I was stationed at Nellis AFB my entire AF tour (besides tech school @ Chanute AFB Ill Nellis was great and Very Busy!!!!! This was back when the 474 TFW was still active and Chanute was still open
Comment from : @redfireroush

i watched it to see if mountain home air force base was mentioned
Comment from : @ltcdoot9164

My son was stationed at Presidio in Monterey California & was just recently stationed @ Kessler in Biloxi Mississippi

Comment from : @TwattyWankers

Patricks AFB is on the beach in Florida
Comment from : @LaniMucha

Been retired for ages but I had some nice assignments during my time in the USAF I was assigned at Lowry AFB in Denver, Colorado and Mather AFB in Rancho Cordova, California These bases are closed Travis, McChord and Davis-Monthan were also very good assignments
Comment from : @randywilson944

Nice list I worked on Randolph for 6 years, great base and went TDY several times to Nellis
Comment from : @jstarr3408

What about FE Warren? I know its cold in WY, but housing is generally affordable and is close to Denver for city amenities
Comment from : @adamrussell9389

Hands down Aviano Air Base!
Comment from : @JohnHill-z8n

Nellis? LMAO Nobody loves or likes Nellis Vegas is cool to visit, but best base?brbrOther bases to consider are Patrick, Charleston, Arnold, Luke
Comment from : @ptoilet3824

Oh wow They moved Lewis-McChord to Seattle? brbrThis video is a joke
Comment from : @RobertKrout19

McChord is about 35 miles south of Seattle and a little bit south of Tacoma People not from WA use Seattle because it's the city usually associated with the state
Comment from : @kecurroj

Too many liberals in Seattle
Comment from : @richfrazier8756

As you point out, "best" is a subjective thing During my 21 years in the Air Force, I was stationed at a couple of places that were considered "bad" assignments yet enjoyed my time there It's not only the location - the DUTY matters too
Comment from : @johnanderson8046

🥸
Comment from : @RmnjrMr

McChord was my first duty station But it’s closer to Tacoma than Seattle
Comment from : @mdupar

Glad I didn't see Mtn home on here
Comment from : @officialpuppydog3688

Going to JBLM soon As Army So hopefully it's all good
Comment from : @tyhoffman1720

Peterson SFB is better thank Schriever Schriever is small and there isn’t much to due It’s a long drive to get to the city
Comment from : @tarynlanica4184

🥸
Comment from : @kingbinx

McChord is in Lakewood not Seattle
Comment from : @lovejen01

I was at Peterson in Colorado and I loved it
Comment from : @Brutushungwell

I wanna hear about what bases are actually good I hear Space Command has all the money so the bases are nicer Edwards AFB in California is pretty dumpy for an Air Force base
Comment from : @redryder210

Myrtle Beach was a decent base during the 80's and early 90's until they shut it down AlsoElmendorf and Eielson in Alaska are both AWESOME locations if you're the outdoors type that likes hunting, fishing, and all things wilderness They're state side bases that are considered overseas assignments
Comment from : @lorenjackson8961

McChord AFB is 45 miles south of Seattle and in Lakewood Washington Interstate i5 traffic is horrible and the area is a ghetto The Democrats' destroyed the State Is now Meth Haven
Comment from : @greenlight6913

This leaves us with the question, worst assignments? Hancock Field, Syracuse, NY (1978) or perhaps Loring, AFB, Limestone, ME (1981) Yipes
Comment from : @philiphuckins2613

When I was in the Air Force, their was only 2 good bases, the one I left and the one I was going to
Comment from : @jameskeane6269

I watched it until the end Was hoping Seymour Johnson AFB in Goldsboro NC would make your list I'm not in the Air Force ,but live close to the base
Comment from : @nathanmeece9794

Just an FYI, McChord is not in Seattle, it is in Tacoma, south of Seattle and SEA-TAC Airport by about 45 minutes This was my first duty assignment in 1977
Comment from : @AlbertGutierrez-s4g

I was stationed at Barksdale AFB in Shreveport LA84-87 I had a great time/met great people 🇺🇸👍also did my Technical School at Lowry AFB ,COLORADO in 83…and I know LACKLAND AFB is EVERYONES #1😁😁
