@mayinmidlife: Randomly remembering the time I landed in Orlando for Navy boot camp and told everybody there was a raging wildfire outside. Y’all. It was humidity. 😂 I was 17, from California, and used to dry air. It was my first time on a plane and my first time really being away from California. I stepped outside, felt that Florida air, and was ready to report a fire before I even got to boot camp. I joined the Navy in 1994 thinking I was about to see the world. Turns out I had plenty to learn before I even left the airport. 😂 What did military service open your mind to? A place, a person, a way of life, or something everybody else seemed to know except you? Tell me your story. #NavyBootCamp #NavyVeteran #MilitaryStories #MilitaryLife #MayInMidLife

RTC Orlando was awesome! We should have kept it. But those Illinois politicians had more pull at the BRAC committee. But Orlando provided the Best climate conditions for training

😂😂😂 I did boot camp in Orlando in June/july. We had red flags for days we weren’t allowed to run because of the heat. Out company commanders ignored them and we ran anyways. It was the best of times lol.

I went in the other direction. First night in boot camp there was a subzero wind blowing in off of Lake Michigan that cut all the way through you but 8 weeks later, at graduation, the heat index was near 100. Great Lakes Memories...

I went there for basic in 81 from the Chicago in late September and we were get snow flurries, then I walked out of terminal to get in the van to take us RTC and thought I was going to die, I still had my winter coat on and it must have been 80 degrees out side with 80 percent humidity. 😵‍💫

Sounds about right. Only went there for NAVET training when I came back into the Navy in 1990. (Old timer here) Also met my future wife there. They sent me to Great Lakes Illinois for Boot Camp back in 1982, started August 15, and it was also humid, mid-west humid, by the time we graduated though in October, it was freezing cold, and that wind would blow right off of Lake Michigan, I tell you that was something else.

Great Lakes… blizzard of 2014/2015.. hip deep snow. Several broken backs/legs/arm from slipping on ice.. would build snow up all around the smoke pits to make igloos to block the -20° air out. The buildings would freeze 2-3 INSIDE the building.. water in your eyes and nose would freeze
