the area itself is great... nashville's only 45 minutes away and there is plenty of stuff to do. air assault school sucks, but its only 10 days long so he shouldn't be to irritable. I'm in 2nd Brigade and its probably the best unit i've ever been in... the rakkasans have a strong reputation and a lot of tradition over in third brigade as well. A lot of stuff is changing here with all the reorganization, so he'll probably have a hard time at first if he gets sent to the new brigade they are setting up, since they are starting from scratch. all in all, its a great place with a great unit.
