I never thought about it, but most MEPS aren’t that big. With conscription, they need to expand along with the training base. Do they get the extra personnel from reservists, or drafted civilians themselves? Facilities seem like the east part.
I'm glad you enjoyed the "local flavor"!

I figure the MEPS would be augmented by civilian hires and maybe some recalled reservists and retirees who are medically unable to deploy. Plus the occasional lucky draftee who wins the assignment lottery!
