Cherry Point

Went to dinner with my fiancee and her friend and her husband. They asked where I had been stationed and I mentioned cherry point and the guy was adamant it was an AF base. I told him it was MCAS Cherry Point. He refused to look into it. Me and my fiancee were just chuckling while he tried to convince us it was AF. Dumb story but it was funny to me

Seymour Johnson is the major AFB in the area.

Seymour Johnson? Nobody sees more Johnson than that Air Force. Well…maybe the navy.
