I think the Commissary and the PX are still in operation, but I am not really sure. It is hard to see it now after spending over 7 years working on that base in one way or another. It is like a friend died. I sold both of my homes in Orlando right before the big housing bust and got the hell out of there. Our home jumped from $90K to right at $300K, and then down to $80K in just two years time. I got out just in time with over $100K in my pocket.

We actually lived on the base in navy housing while my dad was being dicharged, around 78 or so. I remeber going to the gym to play basketball. I also remember going to the lake & renting the paddle boats they use to have .
