Hi Pam,
My son was at Lemoore a few years ago. I can ask him specific questions for you if you like, but I can tell you a couple of things off the top of my head.
The good -- he lived off base for a while and appreciated the lack of traffic and ease of driving to base (set cruise control and go); he also enjoyed the natural areas within an easy drive (Sequoia and Yosemite for hiking and camping).
The bad -- um, how shall I put this? It stinks, literally, both the air and the water. The air quality can be quite bad in that region, and he said that he often felt that he got out of the shower smelling worse than when he went in. He only drank bottled water while he was there.
Hi everyone, my son just got his orders for Lemoore. He reup'd for 3 more years coming from Tinker AFB in OKC, he'll be heading your way Jan/Feb time frame. We are from the Houston area so this will be an exciting change for him. I would love to e-meet you all and hear all about the base and area (good and bad). Any tricks and tips to help his transition will be greatly appreciated! Looking forward to connecting with everyone. #proudmama
Hi All,
I have a Sailor headed your way this week for C School..I'd love to connect with you all....
East Coast Momma who knows nothing about CA ;)
Hello jrp,
My son was stationed there. What would you like to know?
My son is ATI in Lemoore. Any information about base life would be so helpful. I would like to know more about this group. Thanks so much
Thanks for the replies hopefully she will have a few months to get settled before it gets too hot.
