So been down at good ol ft hunter in California, coming home the 29th of this month, thank the lord. Cannot believe the shootings. I work at that Sears right there, some of you have met me there. Just saying hi to all that koox me. hope everyone is ok.
Be carefull where you dig your fox hole, opps sorry, fighting position; i left a few stink bombs out there. :)
Had lots of fun times at that sweat box.
Lol, it is a hot one out here, last week hit 115
I was stationed there in the late 80s. it must be pushing 110 degrees right now. I left a few stink bombs out there too. The one thing I liked about Liggett was that there was room to drive armored vehicles, lots of room, since it is the size od Rhode Island.
LOl, no kidding, huge base!
When I was in the Army (B Co. 4/40 Armor) I spent 8 months TDY at Ft. Hunter-Liggett. It was in support of a DoD exercise called TASVAL. That was in 1979, and it was a big place with little to offer! I remember the "Ruby Mine Saloon" right outside the main gate. Our Battalion SGM was there til closing about every night. The staff duty driver was charged with dropping him off when the NCO club closed for the evening. I was there before Fort Ord closed.
From what I am reading Ft. Hunter-Liggett has not changed much over the years.

My father trained there before he went to Korea as the terrain at the fort was just like Korea.
I did some good fishing on Hunter Liggett in the mid 70's.
