Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait

Ali Al Salem AB is situated just 39 miles South of the Iraqi border in Kuwait. The base is actually split into 3 sections. The US Air Force side, the Army LSA (Life Support Area) and in the middel is the Kuwaiti Air Force Base that includes the Flight Line. There are also Korean, Australian and Japanese on the Base. I spent a year of my life at this Base and even though the temperatures reached 130 degrees it wasn't too bad.
