Just incase anyone goes here. Its freaking awesome!!!!!!! The commissary is new, The px is new, The mini mall is nice. The people on post are really helpful....the housing is nice. The housing area is really big and pretty. Its just really nice. Manhattan is like 20 minutes away...with a mall, target, walmart, kmart, hobby lobby, petco, best buy, bed bath and beyond, places to eat...everything. If your into music like me...concerts come around pretty close to here. Junction city is really small but its got some basic stuff if you need it. The wizard of oz museum is close to here....they have some zoo's close to here, i think a water park is close to here, Theres tons of state parks with camping. So if you get stationed here in my opinion you'll like it!!!

You should see how far of a drive it is to the Kansas City speedway (the big nascar race track in kansas city, KS)... Maybe we could meet up there for some shopping and dinner?? There is a HUGE outdoor shopping mall there!
