Hurlburt was my first duty station. When I got there in 2000, I lived in an old dorm next to The Reef Dining Center. Then after two years, they made a new dorm, next to the BX and Commisary. So I lived in a brand new dorm room, until I PCS'ed to Osan Air Base, South Korea in 2004.

40 years ago, we all couldn't wait to get out of the dorm and "on the economy". 75 years ago, my dad couldn't wait to get out of the dorm either. I guess some things never change. This style dorm seems so nice, I would think guys are in less of a hurry to leave than your previous generations were. Of course, I then remember the; no-knock inspections, lack of respect for shift workers, hey-you details, dorm managers prowling through your stuff when you weren't there, etc. Those are probably some of the things which have not changed. BAH (BAQ back in my day) was flat rate, and about $165 for a single A1C. You could rent pretty much nothing for that, so most of us had a roommate or second job to live off base.
