elcome to Platte Air Force Base Nebraska¸ the last stop on your road to a dishonorable discharge. Platte AFB is where the junk the Air Force doesn't want ends up: obsolete aircraft and personnel who can't be expected to do any better than mothball rusting aircraft. The only break in the deadly dull routine of base maintenance is the one or two times a month a surplus aircraft flies in. Parked in the aircraft "graveyard¸" drained of fuel¸ fluids and sealed against the elements¸ row after row of these planes mark the slow passage of time at Platte AFB. Miles from anything resembling civilization¸ there's not much to do but count the days until your assignment ends and you can eithe r get out of the Air Force or get your career back on track.
