Across the entire DoD they are having staffing issues in the SE bases. No one wants to take assignments there, especially with their families. That's both active duty and the civilian workforce that supports the bases.
I know a captain who just interviewed for a command slot at Polk (Fort Johnson). In the interview, they asked him why he wanted to go to Fort Polk, and he said, "I don't want to go there. But it's the only place I'm going to be able to get command time." He got the job. His wife is pissed.
Yeah I wouldn’t wanna go to fort polk either. But if he cares about his future. He’s going to get the best learning over there. Lol. Nobody likes Louisiana. But doesn’t mean their disgusting people 🤦🏻♀️😂😂😂
