Got notification today that I will be moving to Minot AFB North Dakota in a few months.

It was a special duty I applied for and got accepted. I will
be working at the Nuclear Missle Facilities.

I am really excited to get back to the cold. And I mean COLD.

The best part is the gig is only 3-4 years and then I get to move again.

Now I have 3 months to sell my house :facepalm:

We stopped there for a refuel on the way to Elmendorf for some training, yep, it’s a BYOT base! The Cold War had just “ended” and the flightline had bombers lined up and down the flightline. It was strange to see with only minimal personnel on duty.
