Welcome to Fort Bliss, Tx.

[PaJameProductions]

lol day trips to Jaurez... yes if i feel like being arrested at the border...the army lists it as off limits now

[Slumpnasty]

I grew-up in El Paso, and I was stationed at Ft. Riley and Vicenza, Italy. If I was at Ft. Bliss, I would probably eat a bunch of Chico's Tacos and go to the strip club.

[SarahHooper806]

[luceromaz]

and i knew texas was in the west

[shortstackJMD96]

fuck fort bliss fort hood texas is better

[nightfrog65]

The base was pretty nice, but didn't get a chance to explore El Paso.

[nightfrog65]

We visited El Paso/Ft. Bliss once. Freaked out after hearing about the drug war in Juarez and making a wrong turn off I-10, accidentally heading towards a bridge at the Juarez border crossing instead of the base at 10 PM.

[nightfrog65]

Is the base safe from the gang/drug war in Juarez, Mexico?

[kldfjlaksdj]

@nightfrog65 Yep, Fort Bliss and El Paso in general never sees any kind of bleed through from Juarez. Actually, last I heard, El Paso was one of the safest cities in the country.

[btman2]

@nightfrog65 what do you think?

[renster143]

if you like hot ass sun and dust storms all the time and a shit load of traffic this is the place for you, fuck fort bliss.

Just go to Detroit or Stockton the Americans are all Public Relations with no substance when it comes democracy. The top 5% percent control 90 to 95% of the wealth is template for the rust world. However, they military gov. suports 3 to 4 out every 10 jobs in America at the current time unemployment is 15 to 25%. National Dept 15 trillion get ready for STHF. Once the global montary system digest this Good by America in current form. Them we can get back to basics unstead of the war.

[evileddy6]

[DIZCIPLINE715]

@nightdevil6666 Really...When did it stop there?  Are the barracks still there? You wouldn't happen to remember the name of the street they were on would You? Thanx!

[nightdevil6666]

@DIZCIPLINE715 no idea bro ive been stationed here for 2 years now and all i know is everything is being rebuilt and the closest thing to basic is the ADA AIT "air defense artillary" and air assault school wich is easy btw :P but basic is now held in ft benning , jackson and knox and thats it : / every other post is all AIT programs : / "warning fort bliss has one ofe the most dicked up units available for the US army.."

[candie8301972]

Hey what is the transportation issue in Bliss? Do you guys know?

[diverkev]

I went to nursing school there in 1993

[jstirling27]

man, im a british service man, i spent 7 weeks here in 2007, training to go out to iraq , doing land based phallanx. i loved this place..

[finestroso]

oh my god!! a lot of memories came to my head ... because i had pass my chillhood inside Fort Bliss. I was living other countries( Italy, France, and Spain my homeland) but El Paso was diferent , is a city in the middle of no-where , and on my opinion the desert sunset is and spetacular show to see ... Greetings from the balearic islands...

[I22stars]

El Paso is not bad, Ft. Bliss is ok lol not the worst. We're friendly. =)

[Mscubanlink24]

 Fort bliss isn't that bad but it would be my first choice, we've been here for 5 years, our first duty station and i'm so ready to go.

[Bartleby1701]

Always look at the bright side of any assignment. The desert has its own form of beauty. Try to embrace it. Grand Canyon is 12 hours away. Mountains. Sunsets and sunrises are beautiful.

As far as El Paso is concerned... well, I was stationed there for 2 years and I will say this: best Mexican food anywhere! Lots of great restaurants. The post is pretty nice. Lots of newer housing.

[kingleopold999]

Lol god i don't want to get stationed here

[anchalinhaugen]

This is horrible!! We're moving from FT Lewis to FT Bliss! =**(

[YoungBlood313]

@anchalinhaugen hahahaha!! welcome to mexico!

[supportourtroops17]

great, im getting married at the chapel here, and moving here in a few weeks. hopefully he will get transferred!!!!!

[lilyrojasl]

wow! my family and i too, no idea what to spect, we don't know anything about el paso, about housing nothing :(

[mslimon1221]

To ALL: is this place really that bad?

spouse & I recently recieved orders to report to Ft. Bliss Nov 2010...

[Fallingtear23]

@mslimon1221 IT IS HORRIBLE.. coming from fort Campbell Kentucky... there is no such thing as GRASS over here, the sun murders it. the only form of "grass" in el paso is weeds, which is ironic because ALOT of el pasoans smoke weed..and speaking of the citizens of el paso.. most of them are spanish/mexican, and to me, the WORST part, {being a music lover} most of the radio stations are spanish.. i just hate it. also, if you have kids.. there is really nothing fun/productive to do around here..

[mslimon1221]

@Fallingtear23 : Goodness! Really? well that totally blows!

Coming from the total GREEN state of WA (but lots of rain)...

but I'm originally from Houston, TX so I can take the killer heat :)

ev1 smokes weed? lol...funny...well I'm mexican, so I'll fit right on it....but my poor hubby he's a white guy! haha!!!

No kids here...just the hubby & I!

Beer Pong is what ppl do for fun in Seattle...lol...

so not clubs, no nothing?

[Fallingtear23]

@mslimon1221 lol, well considering the fact that your mexican im sure you will REALLY like it here! especially if you understand Spanish. well the only club i know is Romeos.. you might wanna look at that.. i guess the worst thing for you is getting used to no grass. oh and off post. the community isnt really active.. like in neighbor hoods its a little quite. too quite for ME anyway. on post however, is the typical army post thing.. kids walking around at 8:00 pm, old ladies running, you get it

[ViaNazTy]

@mslimon1221 Fort Lewis baby...awesome duty station compared to Bliss, Bliss is just hot and ugly!

[aob420]
