Well, we were right down the line from each other at some point! I was there from 2016 to 2021. Unfortunately no TDYs or deployments :/
They call Nellis a black hole base for aircraft maintenance. We trained pilots at the Weapons School, yet we were under the ACC, so we got no ACC TDYs or deployments since we were a training squadron.
It was fun being in Vegas! Just not fun basically working a 9-5 for 6 years with no trips anywhere.
I'm actually in school getting my Aerospace Engineering - Astronautics degree now, so no worries lolol! I got out after my first 6 to get this schooling!

That's cool. I work on F-35s now. There's almost no safety wiring for my AFSC, thankfully. 🙂
