PCS season is in full swing. This time of year, hundreds of families will wave goodbye to the Minot wind and head off to their next adventure. We wish each of them the very best.
Let’s be honest, many people arrive at Minot AFB kicking and screaming… or maybe even crying. But despite the dramatic first impressions, something funny happens along the way. This base has a way of growing on you.
However, when you see that “Only the Best Come North” sign at the front gate in your rearview mirror for the very last time, you just might realize you’ll miss what many call the Air Force’s most complained-about base. It’s the people, the friendships, the community, and even those unforgettable North Dakota winters that somehow become part of your story.
But don’t give up hope, you don’t have to leave the Minot AFB community behind.
Remember those Friday mornings when the Northern Sentry landed on your doorstep, keeping you up to date on everything happening on and around the base? Now you can enjoy that same tradition from anywhere in the continental United States.
That’s right! The Northern Sentry now offers mailed subscriptions, so you can continue receiving your hometown military newspaper long after your PCS. Stay connected to the people, stories, and events that made Minot feel like home.
Just because you’ve left Minot doesn’t mean Minot has to leave you.https://northernsentry.com/shop/
