Civilian Housing Lottery

For those civilians that participated, I hope you all got a decent room and are excited for the coming year! Read more →

Back Home!

Hello everyone! I'm back home here in NH as of a few weeks ago. It was nice to make the transition back, but I miss Norwich and my friends dearly. I have some time set aside this summer to visit with friends, which will be a good break from working. As of right now, I am starting another job too, so I have a pretty busy summer schedule.
