Before I crossed trained to Manpower, we were all cut trained into Jets and Hydro. So, we have a bunch of Jet and Hydo Crew Chiefs.

Was in Saudi for Elf-1 (Iran-Iraq war - 90 day rotations), Desert Storm, Desert Shield

Then Kunsan for a year. Retired and got hired. So, I'm still working for the Air Force in Florida at Patrick. This is where I'm staying forever.

Yep, I wound up training a guy who had been transferred to Pope (never did find out what crime he had committed ) from working A-10s and he had been cut trained too. Now they are starting to combine career fields again. And I guess more is on the way.

Got to the sandbox within a week of Iraq planting their national flag in Kuwaits back and left after it was all over. Worked with a great group, I was amazed at what we did to keep those 130s in the air.

Glad you like it at Patrick, everyone should find a place they love to live. I love it up here, just have to find a way to convince everyone that it is horrible so they'll move out and traffic won't be as bad.
