Hey i figured i would intro. myself. My name is justin, came in from the uk and here in Idaho now. About 45 mins from Boise. Just trying to get some info about who is around the area and what they offer car wise. IF any one could send some info on shops/ dyno / car meets around the Boise area that would help. A list of mods are on my sig. Send a pm if your around the area- Justin

Not many SRT owners from idaho frequent the NW section. Although he's not a SRT owner "Marble" would be a good member to talk with I dont remeber if he is from Boise area or North Idaho.

Mountain home = Crap. I was going to stay there on my way to McConnell AFB, kansas... Decided i would just keep driving to salt lake and stay there instead.

2A533A = Comm/Nav/Missions Avionics apprentice

I worked KC-135s out of the 22nd AMXS at McConnell.

You?

McConnell wasn't as bad. The base was lacking but I met some pretty cool people. And the base was pretty light. I liked Keesler a lot more though. But I think I was a southern boy in a previous life.

When did you get out, i joined in april of 01.....got out apr of 07.......work civil service know on mcchord.......gotta love being a civilian!!

Nelson · 04-23-2008, 12:37 AM

Keesler, I was told, was the shit before katrina. I got there post katrina. It was torn up pretty bad. But, the southern atmosphere was still alive and it was pretty crazy to be around. A lot of people are real nice around there... And who can argue with deep frying anything that is edible? I got out last November. I was thinking about coming up to McChord to work avionics on the c-17s, but I would have to finish my degree first. And I really wasn't that fond of avionics.
