Well, this ain't Kansas anymore....
I told the mods already, but I'm not in the US right now. Here are some pics of my current location and living conditions.
I have to post them up in chunks because of bandwidth limits... PD |

Doubtful, but I'll let you know...going there on Tuesday-ish...
I'll add more pics as I get around and take some worth posting. The base itself is pretty sparse and temp was 127 the other day. No Chick-Fil-A....but here's a link...http://dalmamall.ae/en/fast-food-2/ |

What are you doing in UAE this time of year? I thought you were retired, so I'm guessing a little contract work over in the pits of hell....

You would be surprised at some of the whack jobs that have TS. I've known a few that I wouldn't trust to walk my mail from the street to my front door. I only have a Secret clearance, and feel no need for a TS. But you are correct that it will open doors.

In UAE?
That's like vacation land. They can drive themselves to a sit down restaurant downtown some where. Or they can go to a hotel and get hammered at the bar inside the pool. Yes, inside the pool. Near the pool is a man made beach with a canal of some sort. If memory serves, this one... https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Re..._of_Dubai.html Edit: Nope, not that one. That's Dubai, although it is similar. We were in Abu Dhabi. I also want to thank the European lady tourists. We had been out in the boonies for a coupla months. We went from crappy conditions to a five star hotel that served a tasty Lobster Thermador. The hotel I'm talking about handed out towels at the entrance to the pool/beach. The ladies, after receiving the towels, decided right there was good as any place to change from street clothes to bikinis. Thanks again, ladies. |

Used to have a TS for many years. It was downgraded in the 80's after the Walker instance. Had another one later in with the LCAC's when I was one of two for the Classified Material Storage custodian. Imagine having two engineers in charge of your CMS system instead of the electronic guys. Made for about 1 year of sleepless nights worrying if we did the correct destruction and if we loaded the communication gear correct. It was fun going in at 11 PM to load the crypto for the boats.
