I know this is an OLD post....but for the hell of it, where would I have been...?
I was transferred to my first active duty Air Force assignment at Spangdahlem AFB in Germany in October of 1996, with the 52nd Fighter Wing. So, I guess that answers that question. Assuming I HAD survived whatever the Soviets had thrown that was available at the USAFE installations in Europe, I'd be on the "last train to Clarksville" trying to get to the boats heading back to the U.S. Only problem was, my immediate family resided in the Hampton Roads (Virginia area, which includes the massive Norfolk/Portsmouth naval sites along with Langley AFB, Dam Neck, Oceana naval air station, Little Creek, Yorktown Naval Weapons station, Camp Perry, etc.) area which got hit by the nukes, so even assuming they'd survived, I don't think there'd be much left of home in the aftermath.
