It’s not a bad gig. You will be separate from pipeline. Most likely in lodging. The only down side you are solely responsible get to your classes on time . Bring a car or buy one! You’ll like it . 1.5 hours from New Orleans . Every other weekend is a 3 day. Condensed work schedule.

Yes bring a car. It will be well worth the drive. You don’t want to be stuck on base. Beaches , casinos are right outside the gate. NOLA short enough drive for the weekends. Gulf Shores in Alabama , Destin and Panama City the other way . Work hard play hard .

Hello fellow veteran,

I did a portion of my tech school there in '06. As prior service you won't have to march everywhere with the Airmen just out of BMT. I see someone answered you how long it will be, but look up the base's Covid policies such as testing, quarantines and movement restrictions while you are there. You may have to arrive early and wait up to two weeks before starting class.

Thank you. That was another thing that I was worried about.

seems to me that if one is to arrive 2 weeks early to quarantine then their orders would reflect that,
