So, I got approved for OSA orders to Bahrain. it just says Bahrain but I looked the UIC up and it says ISA Air base and the Noble Eagle # says Medical Agumentation team. Can anyone give me info on this. What I'll be doing, will I actually be at the airbase, special pays we rate there. It'll be a 210 day TAD. Any info help thanks

You should contact your detailer and not go through a civilian web page for this, did they not give you instructions on opsec and etc. Never give out location, units etc.

I agree with SN Foster and Capt Frost. You should always keep this within the Military detailer and in house, We to be more cautious. You don't need to be following Hillary Clinton's foot step.

Meant to say that you need to be more cautious. Don't need to be acting like Hillary Clinton.

no you will be living at ISA Airbase there is no special pay the only thing is you get your pay check is tax free. You will deploy down range to Iraq, Afghanistan or where ever they need you.

It's been a while since I've been there but yes it was on the airbase. You should have access to the flight line area for loading/unloading of aircraft and of course maintenance. There is a per diem there but what it is now is anyone's guess. I loved it.

MAJ Ken Landgren -In Bahrain, its not considered hostile but here is the rub; if he gets forward deployed they take away per diem and substitute for danger pay! It the wrong thing to do but that's the government for you.
