I know from experience ft hood has a VAST untapped pool. At Ft Riley a post that has only 3 BDE's we have about 5 regular fighters. Now we have that many fighters of what 10 BDE's? We can put forth effort onto base and we will find them. Then once we do find them we need to follow up with them. If they do not like us find out why. If they do also find out why. 

Just my nickel
