Everyone I know who has been stationed at JBER loved it and wanted to return. Wainwright was about 50/50 on people who liked it.

Every soldier who was in Alaska said they loved it.

If you get the opportunity gor an overseas assignment, take it. Period. Even Korea. Seeing new sights, new cultures, new people is one of those things that just makes life more interesting. Navy used to run ads "join the Navy, see the world." One of those unwritten benefits. Take advantage.

During my years, Alaska seemed to be the one place nobody complained about. Germany was about 50/50, Korea more like 20/80 favorable/unfavorable.
