Default Beale AFB

Was just curious if any of our Air Force active/retired colleagues have been there or have info about it. My half-uncle I suppose you could call him has been stationed out there. I am not sure his specific AFSC but he writes the base paper, which apparently is important for Air Force operations.

Just so you know the Air Force doesn't have MOS's, we have AFSC's or Air Force Specialty Codes.

Sounds like he is in Public Affairs and that indeed is a needed AFSC. As with anything in the Military, COMMUNICATIONS is a vital part. Your Uncle provides a service to each out and touch every member on the Base that he works at as well as the Community around that Base. These folks also help to record the HISTORY of the Wing. The Milestones that they have achieved and in part ar History writers.

So PLEASE, do not discount his efforts in Uniform as that of a High School Newspaper or some such thing.

My apologies, if you say it is important than I believe you. We just have a "rivalry" you could call it. He thinks I am stupid and have a death wish for wanting to become a Marine and I think he is 'wussy' for going Public Affairs in the USAF. Wether or not either is true I don't know, but we act like they are.

Good-natured heckling is usually appropriate in a private feud but not publicly as there are those who may take offense.

We do it in the privacy of our homes. There are usually others there, (most of them not understanding my decision and determination) so they all go against me. Like I remember we had a thread that showed all of the different military jokes. I sent him the USAF enlisted contract or osmething of the sort. He got real mad at me. Then I sent hime the Marine one to see if he understood that it was a joke. But back too topic, anything on Beale AFB? I also heard from his mother that he volunteered for a 'project' somewhere in Ghana I beleive it was.
