Well graduation is finally here. Friday my osut cycle at ft lost in the woods graduates and I'm heading off to NC. we haven't been given our orders so I'm not sure on the exact unit yet, we get that info after graduation is over. Anyway who is stationed there and what is there to do in free time?

Been a while since I was stationed there. Beaches are in striking distance. A couple big cities are not far away. Fayetteville has plenty of night life. Not my favorite town but lots of folks retire there.
Fishing the lakes and ponds are fun if you do the outdoor thing. Good hunting usually too.

Beach is close and so is Chapel Hill and Durham for some college age chicks. You should enjoy it. Especially compared to Fort Leonard Wood.

You will have a local 1/4 mile track and a shitload of 1/8 milers if you do the drag race thing. Rockingham still does tracks course and racing courses for those who evolve beyond the straight line.

Don't pick up anyone on bragg blvd, go to Raleigh or Wilmington for a good time. college towns, need i say more? Fayettnam sucks, surrounding areas aren't too bad.

Come to Greensboro so we can cruise! My Dad was stationed there for his last 3 years and we left when he retired in 09. Greensboro is straight down highway 87. Competition auto is Spring Lake is pretty nice shop if you looking for a great stang shop and Fastlane Motorsports is in Dunn if you are looking for a shop that has EVERYTHING.
