FUK! Never going to Oklahoma EVER again

[wtfbbqover]

I went to basic in lawton Oklahoma and it was a shit hole. Went to Ait in VA and it was a nice place. Airborn and rip training in Ga and loved it. Then spent the next 4 years in Italy. First year was fun, last 3 sucked lol

faced with living in misouri/ok/ks i'd join the army

That's what my dad did in 1942.

Well, he was drafted, but still it may have been the best thing that ever happened to him, since it got him the hell out of dust bowl Oklahoma.

My dad was FROM Lawton, but in the 1940s they sent him to Ft. Chaffee in Arkansas for training. Anyway, if Lawton was a shithole when you were there, imagine it in the 1940s. A good place to get the hell away from.
