These are the worst places to be stationed for every branch of the US military by Blake Stilwell on Mar 6, 2018, 1:58 PM Advertisement
 Every branch of the service has that place their soldiers, sailors, airmen, Coast Guardsmen, and Marines just dream of getting orders for. That place could be anywhere that might appeal to an individual … maybe they love the cultural experience of being in Europe, or they enjoy the sun in Hawaii, or maybe they’re just away from their hometown. These aren’t those places. SEE ALSO: These are the 25 most powerful militaries in the world Army: Fort Polk, Louisiana  Ever hear of Leesville, Lousiana? No? Good for you. Living in a swamp is not something anyone grew up dreaming about. The nearest towns are at least an hour away, and the nearest fun is in New Orleans, a long drive away. Sure, the PX is supposedly great thanks to a facelift, but it had better be: There’s nothing else to do. Fort Polk will supposedly ruin your car, ruin your marriage, and make you hate biting lizards.
Navy: NAS Lemoore  Hey, how does being cast out into one of the most polluted cities on the planet sound? Because NAS Lemoore is a great place to get asthma.
Air Force: Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico  Most people who haven’t been to Clovis, New Mexico, will argue that I spelled “Minot” wrong. I argue that any place referred to as “Afcannonstan” is probably far worse. Both places are pretty remote, and while Minot has a seemingly endless winter, the people of Clovis are annually subjected to a wave of giant insects. Also, the stink of cow dung doesn’t travel as far in the cold. Cannon’s airmen would tell you to be happy it’s so cold.
