., I don't know a ton about Baltimore neighborhoods other than Canton is pretty decent, but we were stationed at Fort Meade and with the NSA expanding on the base, that whole area is exploding.

My name is David Wanninger and I am a military member currently stationed at NAS Whidbey Island, WA. 

I am currently stationed across the country so I can't physically go look at any of the properties.

When you are shopping for areas, be sure to figure out what base you be be stationed on first so you can avoid taking a tunnel to and from work if at all possible.  

The places closer to Atlantic Station seem to fetch a higher rate (not sure why, AS is not fun). $100/night at 15 nights is just earning you $1,500/ month.

During your first year at the station you have to pass some pretty strenuous tests, one of which has heavy focus on the directional and geographical capabilities of the firefighter and how well they know their area.

They may or may not help you recover more but, if you remain stationed overseas they can manage the claim process for you locally.

It's similar to a large random orbital sander.

Not to mention I have no sure way to know where I will be stationed after this tour is up?  

very nice advice i plan to do the same once or if i return from stationed overseas.
