Would you be willing to tell me which bases still have a legitimate computer programming operation going on?

I am about to get my availability listings and I am trying to do some research in advance. After looking at the authorizations on AMS I am dubious about the majority of the bases with 3D0X4 billets actually having a 3D0X4 mission. I only know that Scott, Offutt, and Maxwell-Gunter have our mission. I haven’t heard anything that recent on the other bases.

Tinker, Patrick, and Lackland. I'm on Lackland but my shop might be getting dissolved, and there's another shop down the street in a different NAF.

We have the largest and most active one here at Scott as far as I know. We just did a series of apps that go in the EFB for loadmasters to help them do calculations for weight and balance on all of the large planes that lowered flight times drastically and minimized errors from an average of 20 per flight to next to none. From what I hear the operation at Maxwell/Gunter is not a true programming shop, but mostly database management. There are also a number of us in Germany according to a TSgt who just PCSed to here, but I have not asked what their mission is there.

Dave, I'm headed to Offut. From what I hear, they have a pretty good programming mission. In addition to the places that have already been mentioned, I think that Tyndal may have a mission as well. Good luck!
