Does anyone have any information at all on Peterson AFB? I will be going in February and have nothing to go on. I am going to HQ X1 Space Command.

1SG Private RallyPoint Member -- here is a link to the page that shows you everyone who is currently based out of Peterson AFB, CO. I would recommend also forming some professional connections with peers there as you get ready to transition there from Germany.

Also, if you go to 'Advanced Search' in the upper right corner (on desktop version of the site), you can search for 91X: Maintenance Supervisor individuals who are here on RallyPoint who are within +/- 20 miles of Peterson AFB, which would include Fort Carson, CO. I just did this, and I found a ton of your SFC peers there. So, perhaps connect with some of them as well! Hope this helps.

All I can say while I was stationed in Carson is that it is a small base but well kept as any Air Force base. But damn how you get so lucky?

Thanks for all the feedback and offered assistance from everyone, I really appreciate it. Any info on racquetball there? I understand it is pretty big in that area.

Peterson is a good base and you will find the city of Colorado Springs to be a good place for raising family and exploring the outdoors. You will find Space Command to be an interesting and challenging assignment. What you tend to get assigned there are top notch people and you will also get to interact with the Canadians as NORAD is a sub component.
