I actaully just came from the firehouse on Ali Al Salim. I am traveling through Kuwait on my way back to Afghanistan. I got the heads up from the LT over there about the ITT contract. It is nice here in Kuwait. He said they live in apartments in Kuwait City now. The station here is decent. Decent engine and pumper. Two medical units. And there are something like 5 other stations around Kuwait to include Virginia (real nice) and Camp Buering (also nice). All in all, Kuwait is the way to go. Pretty good gig up here.

I have heard its a decent living just trying to get some sort of idea how the living situation is, Im waiting on my offer letter, I dont know if the pay is up there with IRAQ and Afghanistan because its not a warzone, if you have any insight to the pay feal free to comment,



Thanks

Living conditions are good as far as I am concerned.....engine company officer told me they live in apartments in Kuwait City and commute to work every day. When ITT takes the contract in FEB, they may have to all commute together in a company van. Still beats Kandahar and Baghdad. Been both places.
